Machotka v. Village of West Salem

1 Robert Machotka appeals from a summary judgment dismissing his open records law mandamus action against the Village of West Salem. Machotka sought to ascertain the names of the ultimate purchasers of several municipal bonds issued by the Village in 1993. The sole issue is whether Machotka is entitled to the sought-after information under the "contractors records" provision of the open records law, Wis. Stat. § 19.36(3) (1997-98).We conclude that he is not, and we therefore affirm the judgment.
