WI Court of Appeals – District III

Case Name: Scott W. Frolik, et al. v. Dale P. Schuebel

Case No.: 2016AP674

Officials: Stark, P.J., Hruz and Seidl, JJ

Focus: Court Error – Abuse of Discretion

Scott Frolik and Richard Busch, Jr., appeal a judgment in favor of Dale Schuebel entered upon a jury verdict finding Schuebel adversely possessed a disputed portion of Frolik’s and Busch’s properties.

We reject their arguments and affirm the judgment.
