Types of Forms to Use
Circuit Court Forms can be found by following this link: https://www.wicourts.gov/forms1/circuit/index.htm
(Instructions to filing court documents can be found at the Self representation link)
Use form FA 4170 to seek changes to court orders or judgments.
Do not use this packet if:
Use Stipulation (form FA0604A) and Order (form 604B) if parties are in agreement to change the court order or judgment.
A stipulation is a formal written agreement between parties to change a current court order or judgment. Because this is a stipulation, neither party will have to appear in court. If this agreement is approved and signed by the judge, it becomes a court order.
Do not submit this form to the court without the other party's signature, as the court will not contact the other party to obtain it for you.
The purpose of mediation is to allow parents input into developing a solution to their placement issues and avoid the emotional and financial burden court actions may entail. The focus of mediation is to reach an agreement, or plan, which will be in the best interest of your child(ren). If you are unable to reach an agreement or fail to abide by the schedules established in mediation, you may then need to file a motion with the court for judicial determination of your disputed issues.
You are encouraged to seek legal assistance to verify that these forms are the most appropriate for your situation, court staff and the Child Support Agency cannot give legal advice.
