WI Court of Appeals – District IV

Case Name: Mickey D. Christian v. Mike Culligan, et al.

Case No.: 2017AP2424-FT

Officials: LUNDSTEN, P.J.

Focus: Court Error – Rescission of Purchase Contract

Mickey Christian appeals a circuit court judgment awarding him money damages of $600 in his small claims action against Midtown Motors. The dispute arises out of Christian’s purchase of a used vehicle from Midtown that, Christian claimed, had a motor problem that Midtown failed to disclose. Christian argues that the circuit court erred by not ruling on his request for rescission of the purchase contract. Apart from his rescission argument, Christian contends that the court erred by awarding him only $600 in damages. Neither of these arguments persuades me that reversal is warranted. The judgment is therefore affirmed.
