Wisconsin Statutes 193.925 – Court-supervised voluntary dissolution
Terms Used In Wisconsin Statutes 193.925
- Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
After a notice of intent to dissolve is filed as required under s. 193.905 (1) and before a certificate of dissolution is issued under s. 193.905 (7), the cooperative or, for good cause shown, a member or creditor of the cooperative may petition the circuit court for the county where the registered address of the cooperative is located to have the dissolution conducted under the supervision of the court. Section 193.905 does not apply to a dissolution conducted under the supervision of the court under this section. Section 193.911 applies to a dissolution conducted under the supervision of the court under this section. The court may grant equitable relief that it deems appropriate in a dissolution conducted under its supervision under this section, if the supervision resulted from an application by the cooperative.
