Before SNYDER, P.J., BROWN and NETTESHEIM, JJ.
Court of Appeals of Wisconsin.
¶ 1 NETTESHEIM, J.
We address a novel question in this case and hold that WIS. STAT. § 100.20(5) (2003-04)1 authorizes doubling of an entire damage award when a violation of the Home Improvement Practices Act, WIS. ADMIN. CODE ch. ATCP 110 (Oct. 2004)2 (ATCP 110), is coupled with additional wrongdoing, separate and apart from the § 100.20/ATCP 110 violation, which contributes to the loss.
