The form of the record of the hearing which the commission uses in its review shall be determined as follows: LIRC 1.071(1)(1) Except as provided in subs. (2) through (5), the commission shall base its review on a written synopsis of the testimony taken at the hearing. The synopsis shall be prepared by the department, the division of hearings and appeals, the commission, or an outside contractor, from an audio recording of the hearing or from notes taken at the hearing by the administrative law judge. In those cases any party may obtain a copy of the synopsis as provided for in s. LIRC 1.08.

To be timely under this subsection, a request must be made no later than 14 days after the requesting party’s receipt from the commission of written confirmation that a petition for commission review has been filed. LIRC 1.071(4)(4) The commission shall base its review on a transcript of the hearing rather than a synopsis if a party shows to the commission that the synopsis is not sufficiently complete and accurate to fairly reflect the relevant and material testimony and other evidence taken. In those cases the commission shall direct the preparation of a transcript at its own expense and provide a copy of the transcript to each party without charge. LIRC 1.071(5)(5) On its own motion, the commission may base its review on a transcript of the hearing in addition to a synopsis. In those cases the commission shall direct the preparation of a transcript at its own expense and provide a copy of the transcript to each party without charge.

The commission may grant a written request for oral argument if it determines that an issue would be more clearly presented by oral argument.
