Failure to state a claim – Recusal Motion – Due Process

2014AP2887 Carol Ann Coltman v. Stephen A Kase

Carol Coltman, pro se, appeals an order dismissing her claims against attorney Stephen Kase; Brooks, Kase & Erikson, S.C.; Zoe Wesolowski; attorney Erik Monson; Coyne, Schultz, Becker & Bauer, S.C.; and Antoinette Christenson. Coltman argues: (1) the circuit court erred by concluding her complaint failed to state a claim on which relief could be granted; (2) dismissal of her claims violated her right to due process; and (3) the circuit court erred by denying her motion for recusal. We reject Coltman’s arguments and affirm.
