Divorce Judgment – Real Estate

2015AP230-FT – Michael Paulson v. Debra Lutze

Michael Paulson appeals that part of an order denying his request to invalidate or reform a quit claim deed and granting Debra and David Lutze quiet title to the subject real estate. Paulson argues the circuit court erred by failing to reopen Paulson’s divorce judgment to allocate the real estate as an omitted asset. Paulson also contends the deed executed in favor of the Lutzes was invalid because it lacked Paulson’s signature. Finally, Paulson asserts that the court erred by concluding his suit is barred by laches. We reject Paulson’s arguments and affirm the order.
