Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Civil
Civil Procedure – contempt — ability to pay
Roger and Marjorie Hoeppner appeal a judgment imposing remedial sanctions for failing to comply with the purge conditions of a 2010 contempt order. The Hoeppners argue the circuit court erred by failing to determine whether the Hoeppners would be able to satisfy the purge conditions and by failing to hold a hearing to determine whether the Hoeppners purged their contempt. They also argue the Town of Stettin did not follow the proper procedure to receive a remedial sanction and their due process right was violated. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
