WI Court of Appeals – District IV
Case Name: Orchard Estates, LLC. v. Randal Alvin Meyer
Case No.: 2018AP341
Officials: KLOPPENBURG, J.
Focus: Retaliatory Eviction
Orchard Estates, LLC brought an eviction action against Randal Meyer. Meyer filed a counterclaim, alleging that the eviction was retaliatory. The circuit court entered a judgment of eviction and dismissed Meyer’s counterclaim. Meyer appeals the court’s dismissal of his counterclaim, arguing that the court failed to follow the procedure outlined in WIS. STAT. § 799.209(1) when it curtailed his argument concerning retaliatory eviction at the eviction hearing. For the reasons set forth below, I affirm.
