Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Wisconsin

Her rights depend upon the terms of your father's storage agreement or other understanding with her. WI law permits landlords to insert a provision in their leases allowing property left behind to be considered abandoned and to therefore lawfully dispose of it. If your father had such an understanding with your sister, he too could dispose of it, but I would recommend a certified letter warning of his intent to do that beforehand.
