Contracts — theft by contractor

William A. Patch and Donald Krause and Deborah Krause (“Krause,” if referring only to Donald) appeal a judgment holding them individually liable under the theft-by-contractor statute, Wis. Stat. § 779.02(5) (2009-10). The trial court’s finding that Patch and the Krauses misappropriated, within the meaning of the statute, approximately $156,458 owed to subcontractor TWP Architecture, Ltd. is not clearly erroneous. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
