Property – foreclosure – equal protection

M&I Bank commenced this foreclosure action against the Nunnerys. During the course of litigation, the Nunnerys alleged race discrimination. The Nunnerys, who are both black, contended that M&I treated them differently than a similarly situated white borrower. M&I moved for summary judgment. So far as the parties inform us, the only issue that might have prevented the circuit court from granting foreclosure was the Nunnerys’ race discrimination counterclaim. The circuit court dismissed the Nunnerys’ race discrimination claim, and granted foreclosure. We affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
