Court?
If SC-5100

Supporting Documents follow below re rent
paid in full thru 10/14:
See the twelve (12) pages on this site debunking each of Arendt's statements. He claims knowledge of all events & details of situations prior to my move-in 4/27 thru 9/20. All are complete fictions to support Five Skies fraudulent rental of the unit and failure to perform the duties of landlord described in 704.07(2).
Joey contacted Arendt after receipt of my 9/15 rent payment & letter, although Arendt's email is in response to my letter of 9/03: Threats to start eviction, turn off water, enter w/o notice; 'arbitrary' time frame (also see Arendt 3 (2 of 2)
He coerced & participated in the sham appointment of 9/20 to install "a filter" that will "hopefully help" after they'd been notified 11 times beginning on 5/10 & over the next 4 months. They had known since 3/24 & chosen to withhold that info from me before I sgned lease.
No repairs were done since initial notification 5/10. From my letter of 9/03: 2 repairs done: screen fabric over torn, holey screens & pin replaced in door hinge. 9/28, Arendt writes a sentence that has nothing to do with rent but everything to do with their motivation to get this old lady out: "It appears that you are unhappy with the manner in which my client manages its trailer park." (original notice, letter, & envelope available)
Reported to Building Inspector stairs were not to code on 9/24 causing injuries on 9/16; stairs repaired 9/26; notice taped to door 9/28 = Retaliation
Arendt cited §704.17(1)
incorrectly on the notice: it is for month-month or week-week tenancies. He should have cited 704.17(2)
for tenancies under a lease for one year or less, and year-to-year tenancies. Legaling is hard especially for those who have expertise in residential real estate, right? The due date for rent was changed by agreement with Joey
beginning August. Receipt & check
for August: 0 balance, 0 late fees. Forget facts & documentation, Arendt & Joey choose to claim rent was due on the 1st and not the 15th resulting in an overage in late fees assessed of $70.00. Would help with the money problems Joey claimed they were having on 9/11. Maybe 'close enough' is just how legal is done in Wisconsin. He later complained that I "refused" to pick up the certified mailing of the same notice taped to the door. I didn't need two copies; he could have sent by regular US mail, i.e., there is no requirement for certified mail.
Conspired with Joey to file claim for full Sept rent that was paid & abated
in accordance with 704.07(4). They filed for full October rent on 14th that was not due until Oct 15. None of the repairs cited in 5/10 email & required by 704.07(2)
had been completed 5 months, 5 days (158 days) later depriving me of "full normal use" & which both Joey & Arendt knew to be true. Re Retaliation 704.45 : Notice to Vacate/Pay posted 2 days (9/26) after repair of not-to-code stairs resulting in my injuries and 4 days after my visit to Building Inspector (9/24). Claim for eviction filed 9 days after my call to Wood County Health Department on 10/4 regarding water quality.
Posted on cabinet "at least 5 years" per Amanda. If can't be served, leave on door, mail, post affidavit of mailing, DO NOT HAVE THEM PUBLISH
Arendt did not have it left on the door, no mail was received via any method. He did not email S & C
but did email to inform me that he had published.
Arendt published in newspaper further destroying my reputation personally and as an insurance/annuity broker.
No affidavidt of mailing
listed on court's website. Arendt doesn't bother with this simple procedure: post and/or mail. They thought I was still in residence there on 11/22, so why didn't he mail it? Because he did not want me to see what he & Joey claimed because they knew it to be antithetical to the documented facts.
Two results in search
for non-service & none for nonservice
Results: 1 = Affidavit of Attempted Service
on Non-Petitioning Parent & 2 = re Marriage or Paternity
of Petitioner/Joint Petitioner A
IF I HAD RECEIVED A COPY of the fraudulent S & C by snail mail, posting, or email: I would have handled the Answer & CounterClaim differently given the false claim information on the Summons & Complaint and retaining claim re retaliation.
Full rent demanded effective 08/01_______________
For orange/brown iron-filled water, windows don't open and/or stay open and/or close, broken door allows insects crawl in when it's not raining in;
broken door results in swollen wrist & aching shoulder from trying to open it, key cannot be used to unlock door. Notified eleven (11 times re repairs needed 5/10 - 9/06; written request for completion date of repairs was ignored. Did not have "full normal use" of premises since day one, 4/27.
No contact from Five Skies 7/16-9/10 (58 days). Nothing done re assessment or correction of water; no repairs of anything but replacement of stairs on 9/11 built not to code without permit & resulted in fall & injuries on 9/16.
August's full rent paid on 08/15__________________
Receipt: 0 balance due, 0 late fees - signed by Joey Kedrowski
September rent abated & adjusted for August_______
Letter provided with my check describes relevant statute; abatement is also in accord with the previous abatement provided by Nick Kedrowski
2. DATCP COMPLAINT & RESPONSES
DATCP Complaint w/95 pages documentation_______
Expedited by Gov Walker with Michelle Reinen, Director Consumer Protection Bureau; 3 pg complaint provided - original 11 emails w/documentation are available.
Nick's dishonest reply w/NO documentation________
Arendt's wholly dishonest reply w/NO documentation
DATCP response from Megan Howard_____________
Nick addresses only the topic of stairs with only lies.
Arendt provides NO documentation, of course, and lie after lie after lie despite written evidence. How is it possible to get everything wrong?
Recommendation: small claims court; thank you for contacting the Bureau of Consumer Protection Have a nice day!"
3. Sept 20 coerced & bogus appointment Arendt coerced on the 16th & participated in on the 20th
Bogus appointment: no show, no request to reschedule. See links to site pages________________________________
All info and documentation is provided on page Water Quality & 9/20 Sham Repair App't , Arendt 3(2 of 2) &
Arendt 3b to install a "temporary" fix with a single filter in the unit that would impact every tap (?) that would "hopefully, hopefully help" (not remedy) 4 months & 25 days after I moved in.
Emails to/from Joey re phony appointment___________
On 9/20 for 10:00am app't: @ 10:34am "we are here" talking w/Arendt (old lady should wait for the men to be done). Wait, that was a lie - because "we" are not ALL here as the plumber, only authorized person to do anything, is in Madison according to Joey's email rec'd 4:20p on 10/04 & time stamped 11:40 9/20. No show, no request to reschedule
4. Emails & letters to/from Five Skies
Craigslist ad to rent unit________________________
Email to Nick via craigslist_______________________
Emails to Nick_________________________________
Email from Nick_______________________________
"available now"
washer/dryer or hookups?
Initial email response to his craigslist ad to the last email before moving in on 4/27; nothing re amount of iron in water from every tap in the house.
okay with him to plant a garden
Email/pdf from me to Nick_______________________
9 pages of photos _____________________________
Email response from Nick_______________________
Email from me to Nick__________________________
move in condition with photos
describing windows
he was "not aware of many of the problems," new lines "should remedy" water, forwarding to Delbert, "as soon as possible"
just a little list of the same things that were in the 5/10 pdf
Email/pdf from me to Nick_______________________
Excerpt from above email_______________________

Nick's reply to my 6/30 email____________________
Excerpt from Nick's email response_______________
Excerpt from Nick's email response_______________
repairs not done, orange water, door, windows; all of my texts to/from off-the-books plumber
door (photo from 05/10 email), sticking/jamming, deteriorating: swollen wrist from trying to open door, slamming shoulder into it
windows don't open/close, off-track won't close; 90°in unit with no a/c
annotated; invests a lot of time/energy into calculating late fees but zero time in actually accomplishing any repairs to be be done by anyone
"first that (he) had heard that windows don't open" - see 5/10 pdf w/9 pages of photos, see 5/20 list - It's July.
underground lines - "may have to terminate (my) lease" "would not continue to rent the unit until that issue is remedied" - 63 days after I moved in
Excerpt from Nick's email response_______________
Email/pdf from me to Nick_______________________
tub & door should have been looked at...communication errors....will be shortly. On 5/11, he said door had to be replaced. (Never happened)
Joey called x2, he left no voicemails, he texted for 1st time on 6/30; email is preferable, re-sent 5/20 pdf list of repairs, haven't heard from cash-job plumber since 6/17
Email from Nick_______________________________
water pressure & water quality is the same thing
Email from Nick_______________________________
water quality is priority - if water can't be corrected, other repairs are "moot"
(violates Wisconsin 704.07(4)); July rent reduced to $250.
will no longer "discount" rent as of August even though he 100% knows that plumber did NOT finish
in May; no repairs listed on 5/10 are done; clause in lease re discount for water lines only is void; rent can be abated per 704.44(4).
Emails from Nick re "soon" "on schedule"___________
Six (6) emails assuring me that repairs are on schedule, will be addressed soon, looked at shortly, shared with Joey and/or Delbert.
1 app't requested mid-June; 1 app't requested 7/16; nothing requested or done for 58 days from 7/17 - 9/10.
Email from Joey_______________________________
Request for date of completion of repairs__________
Full rent paid for August ________________________

Letter of 9/03 received by Five Skies______________
details re not completed repairs; deadline to complete after four (4) MONTHS
water - IRON CONTENT NOT CORRECTED; NO ASSESSMENT; NOTHING DONE
5/11 - 9/03 Joey looks at doors; door is not replaced. Stairs to be replaced Labor Day weekend (9/3-5) - done 9/11 with no permit not-to-code.
"repaired" floor: Delbert "thought that would probably happen"
water lines not completed mid-May or to date; laundry connected? unknown outdoor water tap is not connected.
advised I would contact appropriate gov't agencies re failure to repair
advised I would seek legal remedy
informed sewage was still on lawn from 8/22
called out Nick's lies re my availability
Five Skies chose not to respond to my written request of 8/05 for a date that repairs would be completed
2 repairs completed: screening on 5 windows, pin replaced in door hinge (compare to necessary structural repairs provided on 5/10)
USPS tracking receipt
Email from Joey_______________________________
Joey requested app't 9/13; I declined: less than 24 hr notice Nick had guaranteed
9/12 was deadline to complete, not start repairs described on 5/10. Not attach a
filter to "see if that helps"
Rent paid on 9/15______________________________
I provided a letter along with my rent check describing abatement in accordance with §704.07 and previous agreement
with Five Skies.
Email from Joey_______________________________
9/12 app't would have been a waste of time because Joey is now "going back and forth with Pellner (sic)
plumbing "trying to get something to work it, and that will take some time." "a filter as a temporary solution." No assessment - they know what the problem is.
I declined the opportunity to have "a filter" attached (to what
that will affect every
tap?) that might provide a "temporary solution" after 4½ months. How often do you think "a filter" would have to be changed given the amount of iron granules and scum? Hourly?
5. Cash Job Plumber: Kurt Wilkinson
Texts from no-show, no-permit, cash job plumber
Still texting him re not finished job on 6/17; job was to be finished mid-May. Nick notified re "not finished pipes" on 6/30.
Also see info re his arrest for felony stalking (6/05) & burglary, theft misappropriation of ID to obtain money (7/03/16); and later: Domestic Abuse

Nick's lies in response to DATCP complaint
Jack Wotruba, HUD/UDC, DSPS
One week later she just can't remember the injured old lady she chatted with for 20 minutes after she meets with Nick (Saratoga population 5,383)
10/03 - 10/18
to & from: stairs are NOT to code; he provided codes for reasonable & adequate supply of water
confirms stairs not to code; no permit = no inspection
7. Lease & Proof of Lease Wisc Statute 704.03(5)
Notice to Vacate from Patrick Arendt, Atty
references lease; allegedly re unpaid rent that was paid in accordance with 704.07(4). This wasn't about rent. This was about my visit to Building Inspector to report not to code/no permit stair & lack of repairs. Declaring their actual basis for this notice that has nothing to do with rent, he wrote "It appears that you are unhappy with the manner in which my client manages its trailer park."
8. My Counter Claim 10/29/16 & Claim 12/29/16
CounterClaim & Answer
Claim
Would have been written differently but Arendt's ploy to keep details of false info on his Summmons & Complaint from me was successful: S & C was not posted on property, was not mailed, no affidavit of mailing in public record, published in newspaper contrary to notice at Small Claims Intake Desk
Both claims provided only for the actual expenses incurred as result of fraudulent rental & necessity to constructively evict myself. Does not (yet) include punitive
9. Errors Filed & In Public Record
Public Record: Evicted - will move out
I had constructively evicted myself a few weeks earlier due to non-remediation of water, windows, door, sewage, etc as Five Skies flouted laws with support & legal counsel of Arendt, J.ust D.eceit, attorney at scofflaw
Judge B said it doesn't matter that Minutes say one thing & transcript says the opposite (will move; has moved)
Do you think it will matter to future landlords assuming I live that long? Does it matter that one is true & one is false?
Does it matter that one supports the scofflaw attorney & one harms the pro se? Is this how justice is supposed to work in Wood County, WI?
Court Minutes conflict with Court Transcript
Minutes: will move out
Transcript: has moved out
Public Website:
Will move out
Judge B said it doesn't matter
Transcript does NOT reflect what I said/understood
I said what I understood: their case is dismissed & I don't owe them any money. Judge Potter was already halfway out of his chair, banged gavel & said dismissed. Never mentioned my counterclaim. Court reporter filled in opposing counsel's preferred boilerplate.
Judge B said no mention of counterclaim might be basis.
Dismissed error as their reporters are ALWAYS
accurate although they are unable to correctly spell the name that appears on the claim in their transcript.
Wood County Court is NOT neutral in several respects, but see for yourself
Jackie doesn't want pro se's changing her court schedule (hard for her) because they want to obtain legal counsel, she wants to know if pro se has a doctor appointment - does she ask attorneys same? Need 3 weeks? Get 1 week at someone else's request & request of pro se is ignored.
Clerk unable(?) to print copies of records;
copies not sent to pro se
Clerk claims she is able to print only 1st page of one & unable to print other records requested on 2/8/16 when pro se
learns copies are possible/available ($1.25/pg)
copies never received for 11/22 or 6/30
Stipulation specified was not offered/provided
Couldn't sign an SC-5300VA Stipulation for Dismissal (Eviction) that is not offered/provided Judge B said it doesn't matter
Pro se contacts court re errors; court responds to
opposing counsel not pro se
Judge Nick B said they would NEVER
contact a pro se. Isn't the pro se acting on their own behalf? Yes
Does the opposing attorney act on the pro se's behalf? Absolutely not.
So the court contacts the opposing attorney and Judge B calls that "neutral"
Staff at Small Claims Desk: Incompetent &/or untrained &/or disdain for pro se queries
Need 2 copies, 3 copies - no - just one; "can't" print records = willy-nilly handling of important documents with serious consequences
Monetary claim for expenses incurred resulting from having to move x2 in 6 months due to negligence of scofflaw landlord supported by Arendt, atty
Broken into 3 parts to accommodate upload size restrictions (lots of pictures)
Dismissed due to reporter's failure to transcribe what I said, Potter's 11/22 rush to leave courtroom w/o discussion of my counterclaim
