Liesner Trial Transcript Note Anderson testimony (p.17): “REPLEVIED” Suggests replevin was cause of action. (= Common law action for return of personal property)
LiesnerTrial Transcript: DQ1.19: Best Evidence for Each Side (Krypton) Liesners’ Attys must have argued: • L-Boys did mortally wound wolf • L-Boys did continue pursuit (Uranium) Wanie’sAttys must have argued: • Uncertainthat L-Boys mortally wounded wolf • L-Boys did not continue pursuit TO WHITEBOARD
Liesner Trial Transcript: DQ1.20Trial Judge’s Perspective • To make this decision, Judge must believe: • Abdomen shot was mortal wound (“gut shot”; wolf’s behavior) • Only shot that could have made that wound was Ed Liesner shot (bullet/angle) Questions/Concerns?
Liesner Trial DQ1.20: Trial Judge’s Perspective • Trial Judge must have believed: • Abdomen shot was mortal wound (“gut shot”; wolf’s behavior) • Only evidence of shot that could have made that wound was Liesner shot (bullet/angle) • Keep in Mind • Judge might have experience with guns/hunting • Judge could see pelt & holes • Not every factual dispute is material to outcome. • Whether there was “manure” in abdominal cavity • Whether Wanie tried to hide bullet hole
Liesner Trial Transcript: DQ1.21 Uranium Why Bother? Why do you think the Liesner family chose to bring this lawsuit?

Ideas include: • Father Acting as Good Parent; Maybe Related to Either: • Shooting = important coming-of-age moment for boys (1st wolf seen/killed) • Father protecting boys against perceived bully/cheater • Maybe reflective of larger social/economic split in community

Liesner Trial: DQ1.21 Uranium Wanie Motivations? Ideas include: • Defending Liesner father’s challenge to his integrity (manure/patch) • Again, maybe reflective of larger split in community • Interest as regular hunter in clarifying rules/fixing bad result (although concedes prevailing rule)
Liesner Trial: DQ1.22 Relevance of additional facts found in trial record to how you should read/use the appellate opinion? • Helps you to understand what happened BUTnormally unavailable to lawyers. • Meaning of written opinion: • Determined by what WiscSCtchooses to include • What doesn’t go into opinion isn’t part of opinion (cf. Las Vegas)
