Torts — fraudulent misrepresentation

Peter Bernegger, pro se, appeals the trial court’s order dismissing his fraudulent misrepresentation claim against Scott Johnson pursuant to Wis. Stat. § 802.06(2)(a)6. (2011-12). He also appeals the trial court’s order dismissing his claims against Johnson and David Cooper in their entirety for want of prosecution pursuant to Wis. Stat. § 805.03. Bernegger claims that the trial court erred in dismissing his fraudulent misrepresentation claim against Johnson because he was not given adequate notice that the issue would be heard on the hearing date that the trial court considered it. He also claims that the trial court erroneously exercised its discretion in dismissing his claims against Johnson and Cooper in their entirety. We affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
