Description
1 Richland County appeals a summary judgment order dismissing its action against Franklin Farmers Mutual Insurance Company and Grinnell Mutual Reinsurance Company in which it sought recovery of funds it expended for John Sheires medical bills. The circuit court concluded that the Countys claim was precluded by an earlier action in Sauk County, and any entitlement to relief from the Sauk County judgment should have been pursued in Sauk County with a motion under WIS. STAT. 806.07. The County argues that the Sauk County judgment was procured by fraud on the court, and claim preclusion does not apply because there was no identity of the causes of action. The County also argues that WIS. STAT. 49.89(8)(a) should be construed to allow the County to file a separate action to recover medical assistance payments, even if it was a party to the earlier action. We reject these arguments and affirm the order.
