Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Wisconsin
My siblings and I own my moms home as joint tenants. My sister took the refrigerator and stove from the home. This has lessened the value of the home, can I take her to small claims?

Ownership of land as joint tenants does not effect ownership of moveable personal property. Therefore, if your sister, or someone for whom she was acting (such as your mother) owned them, she would be within her rights to move them.
