Civil Procedure — relief from judgment — excusable neglect

First World Management Services, Inc. appeals an order denying its motion to reopen a judgment awarding Equity Cooperative Livestock Sales Association $77,754.53 for breach of contract plus prejudgment interest, costs and attorney fees, and dismissing First World’s counterclaim. Although First World raises several issues on appeal, we conclude that one issue is dispositive. We affirm the order because First World failed to establish excusable neglect, fraud on the court or any other reason justifying relief from the judgment. See Wis. Stat. § 806.07(1)(a), (c) and (h) (2011-12). This opinion will not be published.
