Because I'm not licensed to practice law, it would be a crime for me to give non-prisoners (I am allowed to litigate for prisoners + have won cases for them*) legal advice. Do not construe this as legal advice, but as my explanation of what I would do if I was you + why, So when I say 'you' in here, I'm talking to myself (ain't the first time :) ).

You should verify the validity of legal information anyone gives you, even an attorney with a license. So, do so regarding my thoughts using: wisbar.org/ (let's you see cases, statues, etc.), wcca.wicourts.gov (look up cases in county courts), ca7.uscourts.gov (look up federal appeals for our circuit), wicourts.gov (look up state court appellate - + supreme - court decisions), legis.wisconsin.gov (look up statutes + administrative codes).

* Two cases I litigated and won are: Koutnik v. Berge, 2004 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 13926 (W.D. Wis. 2004) and Wesley v. Grams, 10-CV-459-SLC (settled out of court).

Step One: Letter to the D.A.I. Administrator

Get the ball rolling by writing D.A.I. Admin. Jim Schwochert, in which you'll explain how what he's doing is illegal and ask him to stop.

This is for two reasons: 1) so he can't pretend that he doesn't know he incited a host of illegal activities, and 2) so you prisoners can file a complaint with the Inmate Complaint Review System (I.C.R.S) when he refuses to correct himself. Non-prisoners with loved ones in prison can and should also write such a letter, just modify it as appropriate, so it's written from their perspective on behalf of their loved one in prison.

A copy of such a letter, as I'd write myself, is included as Attachment A, at the end of this guide. You'll notice that I give six ways that the practices of taking money from prisoners incited by Schwochert are illegal. Even if one or more ways doesn't apply to your situation, I'd still put them in the letter, make ti harder for him the play stupid with other guys.
