Appellate Decisions Released June 22, 2006
The Wisconsin Supreme Court did not release any opinions or dispositional orders today, other than one addressing attorney discipline.
The Wisconsin Court of Appeals released these opinions today, recommending publication of the following:
K&S Tool & Die Corporation v. Perfection Machinery Sales, Inc. The Court ruled that a company was still a member of "the public" for purposes of Wis. Stat. sec. 100.18 notwithstanding a prior contractual relationship four years earlier. The Court also stated that for applicability of this statute it is immaterial that the buyer initiated contact with the seller instead of vice-versa. The controlling criterion is whether the seller made a misrepresentation in the parties' interaction.
State v. Schutte (sufficiency of evidence; invasion of fact-finding province of jury; evidentiary relevance; new trial in the interest of justice; and improper closing argument as a deprivation of due process and fair trial).
