How to Change Venue

[steph0nie]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Wisconsin

How do I file a motion for a change of venue in a family court case? I'm not finding any resources on how to file a motion.

Draft motion. File with court.

Why do you think a COV is needed or warranted?

For the OP's specific question, see:

Wisconsin Legislature Data
(Look to chapter 802 as well.)

For the local rules, see:

For information to help the OP answer Blue Meanie's reasonable question, use the search box on the above page and look for venue. There are a lot of portions of the code which cover it.

To HappyWanderer... thank you very much, this was exactly what I was looking for!

To JETX... thanks for the help. I don't know how anyone could manage the legal system without your insight.

To BlueMeanie... guess you'll just have to trust me. I'm not an attorney, so that shouldn't take too much effort.

Merry Christmas.
