The Wisconsin Supreme Court will review whether a condominium association can forbid new owners from using recreational amenities until they have paid condo assessments that are alleged to have accrued before the new owners took over.

The Court announced Thursday that it would grant a hearing in the case Walworth State Bank vs. Abbey Springs Condo Association. At the same time, the court state that it was rejecting requests for reviews of 75 other cases.

The condominium case stems from a dispute over condo assessments that are alleged to have accrued after a bank had bought two foreclosed condominium units at a sheriff’s sale and then sold the units to two new owners.

The court will also review whether the condo association unjustly enriched itself by taking payments made from the bank.
