WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: Caitria Thiele v. Ronnie L. Robinson and Hush
Case No.: 2016AP2180
Officials: Kessler, Brash and Dugan, JJ.
Focus: Insurance – Negligence Claims
Caitria Thiele appeals an order of the circuit court granting summary judgment to third-party defendant Auto-Owners Insurance Company. We affirm. Thiele argues that the circuit court erred in granting summary judgment in favor of Auto-Owners because: (1) there is a genuine issue of material fact as to whether the WCA precludes Thiele’s negligence claims against Bootz; (2) Coverage A of the Auto-Owner’s policy covers Thiele’s negligent supervision claim against Bootz; and (3) Coverage B covers Thiele’s false imprisonment claim against Robinson.
