556 WISCONSIN BLUE BOOK mencing June, 1959, $15,000.. Circuit judges in Milwaukee County must be paid an additional $1,000 by the county. All of the counties including Milwaukee are authorized to pay an additional amount up to $3,000. The salaries of circuit-court reporters and the travel- ing expenses of the judges and reporters are paid by the state. The circuit court holds court at least once each year in every county in the circuit. The terms of circuit court are prescribed in the statutes and vary in number and length according to the usual business to come before the circuit court in the county. The circuit court has both criminal and civil jurisdiction in all actions-unless an exclusive jurisdiction is given to some other court. It has concurrent jurisdiction with the county courts in some areas including matters relating to marriage. Cases may be transferred between the circuit and the county court in actions where they have concurrent jurisdiction. There is some specialization of jurisdiction in the branches of circuit court of Milwaukee County. The circuit court also sits as an appellate court, hearing some appeals from county courts and from municipal justice and justice of peace courts. Appeals from decisions of the circuit court go directly to the Supreme Court.
