Description
1 Mary and Ken Weber appeal from an order granting summary judgment to Platt and Charlotte Barber. The Webers contend that the final decision of the Zoning Board of Appeals regarding the legality of their business use of certain property is determinative and cannot be "superceded" by the circuit court other than on certiorari review. The Webers also challenge the order on grounds of laches and estoppel. In essence, the Webers primary argument recites the doctrine of claim preclusion, which stands for the proposition that "a final judgment on the merits in one action bars parties from relitigating any claim that arises out of the same relevant facts, transactions, or occurrences." Kruckenberg v. Harvey, 2005 WI 43, 19, 279 Wis. 2d 520, 694 N.W.2d 879. We agree with the Webers that the Barbers are precluded from relitigating their claims in circuit court; therefore, we reverse the order granting summary judgment to the the Barbers.
