Listen to this articleAffirmed.
DISSENTING OPINION: Abrahamson, Ch. J. “I continue to maintain that the court has erred in declaring the petitioners’ motion frivolous and in imposing sanctions on the petitioners in this case….
“11 First, the court’s decision declaring the petitioners’ motion frivolous and imposing sanctions is erroneous on its face as a matter of law. The court has failed to justify the declaration of frivolousness and the imposition of sanctions as required by either Wis. Stat. sec. 809.25(3)(c) or sec. 802.05(1)(a).
“Second, this case undermines confidence in the legitimacy of this court’s decision-making process and the integrity of this court as an institution.”
On Motion for reconsideration, Per Curiam
