Wisconsin Code § 806.34

Determining the amount of the money of certain contract claims
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
(1) If an amount contracted to be paid
in a foreign money is measured by a specified amount of a different money, the amount to be paid is determined on the conversion
date.
(2) If an amount contracted to be paid in a foreign money is to
be measured by a different money at the rate of exchange prevailing on a date before default, that rate of exchange applies only for
payments made a reasonable time after default, not to exceed 30
days. Thereafter, the bank-offered spot rate of exchange on the
conversion date applies.
(3) A monetary claim is neither usurious nor unconscionable
because the agreement on which it is based provides that the
amount of the debtor’s obligation to be paid in the debtor’s money
must, when received by the creditor, equal a specified amount of
the foreign money of the country of the creditor. If, because of
unexcused delay in payment of a judgment or award, the amount
received by the creditor does not equal the amount of the foreign
money specified in the agreement, the court or arbitrator shall
amend the judgment or award to provide the creditor with the
amount of the foreign money specified in the agreement.
