This case will have oral arguments on Wednesday, February 10, 2010 in front of the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Attorney Robert Menard, along with Attorney Luke Wagner, represent the plaintiffs in this case.
The issue in this case is whether Zachary Zarder is entitled to uninsured motorist benefits under the terms of the Acuity insurance policy and/or the omnibus insurance statute. Zachary was struck by any unidentified motor vehicle while riding his bicycle. The driver of the vehicle briefly stopped and then fled the scene without providing identifying information. The Supreme Court must decide whether such an unidentified motor vehicle constitutes a "hit-and-run" vehicle. The Supreme Court will be focusing on the word "run".
