WI Court of Appeals – District III

Case Name: Jason L. Edmonson v. Lamond Carson et al

Case No.: 2014AP2582

Officials: Stark, P.J., Hruz and Seidl, JJ.

Focus: Breach of Contract – Court Error

Jason Edmonson appeals a judgment awarding him $2200 for breach of contract against Lamond Carson, but denying his request for punitive damages against Carson, and dismissing all claims against Edmonson’s former wife, Lori Fleming. Edmonson argues: (1) the circuit court erroneously failed to consider Carson’s and Fleming’s statements at a scheduling conference, their failure to respond to requests for admissions, and Edmonson’s itemization of damages; (2) the court erred by denying Edmonson’s request for default judgment and summary judgment; and (3) the court improperly denied Edmonson a jury trial. We reject these arguments and affirm the judgment.
