Derleth v. Cordova

Circuit court had no authority to prospectively order that Wife not move beyond forty-five miles from the marital home. By its enactment of Wis. Stat. § 767.481, the legislature has made a judgment that moves of less than 150 miles are not subject to the best interests of the children standard.

Alvarez v. Veliz

While father’s intent to move to Washington was not unreasonable as it would allow him to pursue his best career options in the navy, the removal of the children from Wisconsin to Washington was unreasonable and not in their best interests.
