Description

¶1. Attorney Lee P. Forman appeals the decision and order of the trial court granting Dr. David D. McPherson and Lakeland Medical Center's motion for mistrial and imposing sanctions in the form of costs and attorneys' fees. Forman argues that the trial court failed to engage in "any meaningful consideration" of alternative remedies to a mistrial. Forman also argues that the proof submitted by Dr. McPherson and Lakeland "was completely insufficient to sustain [the specific amount awarded] because the affidavits and bills of costs contained opinions that are conclusory and incomplete." Forman argues that he was entitled to discovery with regard to the fees and costs. Finally, Forman argues that Dr. McPherson's and Lakeland's motions for fees and costs were untimely under Wis. Stat. § 806.06 (2001-02).*fn1
