Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Civil
Property – boundaries – ambiguity — extrinsic evidence
Matthew and Patty Alwes appeal a judgment resolving a boundary line and property dispute in favor of the Town of Norrie. The Alweses challenge the circuit court’s interpretation of the subject deed and contend that “latent ambiguity” in the deed requires the consideration of extrinsic evidence. The Alweses also claim the circuit court erred when it determined the Alweses were not entitled to that part of a discontinued road adjoining the Town’s property. Finally, the Alweses argue that the circuit court erred by dismissing their nuisance claim. We reject the Alweses’ arguments and affirm the judgment. This opinion will not be published.
