The cases below were cited by Wisconsin courts in a sentence that names this issue. Sides come from how each citing opinion treated the case (Syfertize flag on that citation), so a case can appear on both: that is where the law is contested. A red or yellow chip is the case's own overall treatment.

United States v. Smithgreen1 sentence2024This accords with the principle, articulated by the Seventh Circuit, that the line between consensual contact and seizure “is crossed when police convey to an individual that he or she is suspected of a crime,” and that such a message may be conveyed by “words or conduct.” Smith, 794 F.3d at 686.8 The applicable persuasive principle in these cases is that, depending on the totality of the circumstances, conspicuous following by police in advance of a direct encounter with a citizen can contribute to a reasonable belief that police intend to detain the person, or are about to detain the person, | 1 | 1 |

Wisconsin Voter Alliance v. Terry Reynolds
green
1 sentence2025STAT. § 54.75 (2023-24).1 ¶40 In my view, Reynolds sets forth a more persuasive analysis of this statutory language, in particular the meaning of the word “pertinent.” Thus, I agree with Reynolds’ conclusion that the Notice of Voting Eligibility (NVE) forms are “pertinent to the finding of incompetency.” See Reynolds, 410 Wis. 2d 335 , ¶28. | 1 | 2025–2025 |

People v. Allen

2 sentences2006As the court so aptly put it, "[i]f a defendant is allowed to refuse to answer questions during a psychiatric interview then it would be nearly impossible for the State to determine whether or not the defendant was sexually dangerous." Id. at 103 , 89 Ill.Dec. 847 , 481 N.E.2d 690 . ¶ 57 The persuasive analysis of the Illinois court is certainly applicable here. 2006As the court so aptly put it, "[i]f a defendant is allowed to refuse to answer questions during a psychiatric interview then it would be nearly impossible for the State to determine whether or not the defendant was sexually dangerous."
