Jim Niquet, Travis Rhoades and Bill Keeler prevailed on summary judgment, securing the complete dismissal of our four power generation company clients from a premises liability based wrongful death claim. Determined to get rulings on the particular facts of the case, with the potential for a much broader appellate application, we worked to provide both trial and appellate courts as set of undisputed facts on which to rule. We proposed and negotiated a set of stipulated facts with the plaintiff, and successfully argued that the application of Wis. Stat. § 893.89 to those facts resulted in a complete bar of Plaintiff’s claims.
