Description

JANINE P. GESKE, J. Matthew Verdoljak (Verdoljak) petitioned this court for review of a decision of the court of appeals affirming the order of the Circuit Court for Douglas County dismissing his negligence action against Mosinee Paper Corporation (Mosinee). The order was entered by Judge Joseph A. McDonald upon granting the defendant's motion for summary judgment on the grounds that the claim was barred under the ""recreational use"" statute, Wis. Stat. § 895.52 1 which ""limits a property owner's liability for an injury to, or caused by, someone engaging in a recreational activity on the owner's property."" Sievert v. American Family Mut. Ins. Co., 190 Wis. 2d 623, 626, 528 N.W.2d 413 (1995). We granted the petition for review to resolve the issue of whether § 895.52 was properly applied to immunize Mosinee from liability for injuries Verdoljak sustained while riding his motorbike on a logging road owned by Mosinee. We conclude that the recreational use statute does not require an owner to ""open"" his or her lands in order to be afforded immunity from liability to a person injured while engaging in recreational activity on the owner's property. We affirm the decision of the court of appeals and hold that the recreational use statute does apply to owners like Mosinee, even when they place some restrictions on the public's use of their lands.
