and   Industry    Review   Commission.    Chief      Justice      Shirley       S.

Abrahamson, Justice Ann Walsh Bradley and Justice N. Patrick

Crooks would affirm.       Justice Patience Drake Roggensack, Justice

Annette Kingsland Ziegler, and Justice Michael J. Gableman would
                                                            No.   2012AP2566

reverse.   Justice   David   T.       Prosser   did   not    participate.

Accordingly, the decision of the court of appeals is affirmed.
