Notes on proper service of the 5-day and 14-Day notices
A lot has changed in Milwaukee County eviction court since March 1st, 2009. Please read this over and review your notice prior to submitting the eviction.
- If you use the old "fill in the date" style 5-Day notice and have the wrong return due date your case will be dismissed. For example you wrote the notice out on the 10th with date of the 15th but do not serve it until the 11th because the tenant was not home your case will fail. If you mail it certified on the 10th it will fail, because you must add two days for mailing. (The court used to allow the eviction to proceed if the owner waited the proper time before filing.)
- The new style notices avoids this problem by using the phrase "within 5 days service herein" This notice is available on our WIevictionForms.com website.
- If you include late fees, damages, utilities or security deposit on your 5-Day (assuming a month to month) your case will fail. A 14-Day notice would be proper. However if it is a year lease then you must use a 5-Day breach notice and a 14 Day would fail. Just because the charge is on the lease the tenant signed, it does not mean the charge can be included on a five day.
- Milwaukee County Eviction Commissioners are dismissing or modifying cases if the owner's name on the summons does not match the city treasurer records. You must evict in the name of the property owner, not the management entity.
- Prior to August the court would allow a member of an LLC or a full time employee of an LLC to appear for the LLC without an attorney. Beginning in August they are requiring LLCs to appear by attorney or full time employee. Their definition of full time employee is a person on payroll who is employee by the property ownership entity. Most LLC rental property owners do not take their income as wages, but as dividends.
