Johnson//Becker's Legal Challenge Against Hy Cite Enterprises
In a significant legal move, the national law firm of Johnson//Becker, PLLC, recently initiated a lawsuit against Hy Cite Enterprises in the Wisconsin Federal Court on behalf of their client, Martha Gouty.

Allegations of Defective Design
