Civil Procedure
Frivolous actions

Jeanine L. Jackson, pro se, appeals from an order dismissing her amended complaint against United Migrant Opportunity Services (UMOS), and several of its current and former employees and agents; the law firm of Gonzalez, Saggio & Harlan, LLC, and several of its attorneys who had represented UMOS in an earlier lawsuit filed by Jackson; and V.E. Carter Development Group, Inc., a day-care business that had contracted with UMOS, and one of Carter's employees. The circuit court also found that Jackson's lawsuit was frivolous under Wis. Stat. § 802.05, ordered Jackson to pay attorney fees in the amount of $10,000 as a sanction, and enjoined Jackson from further litigation against UMOS, its employees and agents without first obtaining leave of the court. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
