Judge Recusal – Abuse of Discretion

2014AP2266 Greg Griswold v. Town of Cross Plains

Greg Griswold appeals a judgment and orders entered by the circuit court after we remanded the case following a previous appeal. Griswold argues that all adverse rulings entered against him while the circuit court case was pending before Judge John Albert should be vacated, that the circuit court erred in entering an order requiring him to post a bond as a condition of appeal, and that the circuit court’s award of attorney fees incurred by the Town of Cross Plains was excessive and unreasonable. For the reasons discussed below, we affirm the judgment and orders of the circuit court.

Decision

Affirmed. Per Curiam.
