  2. Johnson v. Johnson

    78 Wis. 2d 137 (Wis. 1977)   Cited 39 times

    The court did not abuse its discretion; the provision for major medical responsibility which rests with the defendant doctor can well be in the best interests of the children. Kuesel v. Kuesel, 74 Wis.2d 636, 639, 247 N.W.2d 72 (1976); Graichen v. Graichen, 20 Wis.2d 200, 121 N.W.2d 737 (1963). During the pendency of this action a new prosthesis for the parties' daughter, Virginia, was purchased by the appellant without consulting Dr. Johnson. The prosthesis was not a hook, but rather "like a hand."

  3. In re Marriage of Goberville v. Goberville

    2005 WI App. 58 (Wis. Ct. App. 2005)   Cited 19 times
    In Goberville, 280 Wis. 2d 405, ΒΆ 6, we explained that a circuit court has wide discretion in determining child placement.

    While temporary hearing records may be relevant at the trial of a divorce action where custody is at issue, neither party has the burden of proving a material change in circumstance to warrant a different custodial determination than the one ordered as a result of the temporary hearing. Kuesel v. Kuesel, 74 Wis. 2d 636, 638-39, 247 N.W.2d 72 (1976). That same principle applies to physical placement.

  4. In re Paternity of S.A

    478 N.W.2d 21 (Wis. Ct. App. 1991)   Cited 14 times

    The best interests of the child is the primary consideration in custody determinations for both divorce actions and paternity actions. See secs. 767.24(5) and 767.51(6), Stats. The public interest in promoting the best interests of the child in custody matters is always the dominant concern. Kuesel v. Kuesel, 74 Wis.2d 636, 639, 247 N.W.2d 72, 73 (1976). The best interests of the child are not always the primary concern of the parties and it is the child's welfare, not the parties' wishes, that are at stake.
