How do I file for adverse possession in Wisconsin? Adverse possession is a longstanding common law concept that describes the use of someone’s land by another. Possession simply means that the person was using the land as his or her own, taking possession of it. One owner may use land that actually should belong to the owner next door. This can occur in many ways. Someone may erect a fence or shed that encroaches onto the neighbor’s property. A person might start using land for a garden or for other purposes. Often, people do not realize that their land was taken over by someone else for years, sometimes decades. In some cases, the situation doesn’t come to light until the property is to be sold and a survey is done. An experienced litigation attorney will help you through an adverse possession claim and assist you in proving your case in order to regain possession of your property.

In 2022, the Attorney General's Office filed only six Sunshine Law lawsuits, compared to 20 lawsuits in 2018. These developments are concerning for those who believe in open government. The Sunshine Law is essential for ensuring that the public has access to information about how their government is operating. When public bodies can close meetings and withhold records, it makes it more difficult for the public to hold their government accountable. Overall, Florida is going after the Sunshine Law in a number of ways. The state is narrowing the scope of the law through legislation and challenging the law in court in order to make it more difficult to enforce.
