Description
This is a review of an unpublished decision of the court of appeals filed December 9, 1981, affirming a judgment of the circuit court for Waukesha county, John P. Buckley, circuit Judge. After a fire destroyed the home she owned jointly with her husband, Judith A. Hedtcke filed a complaint against Sentry Insurance Company to recover for loss or damage to the home under a fire insurance policy that Sentry had issued to Hedtcke and her husband as named insureds. Sentry failed to serve an answer to the complaint within the statutory time period, and Hedtcke refused to grant Sentry an extension of time. The circuit court entered an order granting Sentrys request for additional time to serve and file its answer. Sentry filed an answer. Thereafter Sentry moved to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, or alternatively, for summary judgment on the ground that Sentry was not liable under the policy because the property damage was caused by Hedtckes husband, a named insured. The circuit court then entered a judgment dismissing the complaint on the merits. The court of appeals affirmed the judgment.
