Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s administration asked a state court judge to throw out a lawsuit filed by unions challenging the legality of a law limiting public workers’ collective bargaining rights.

Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen filed the dismissal request today with Dane County Circuit Judge Peter C. Anderson in Madison. The state argued that a court order issued by another judge, Maryann Sumi, blocked the law.
