Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Civil
Juveniles – TPR — best interests
Samantha J. appeals the dispositional order that terminated her parental rights to three of her daughters, Shawnise J., Sieanna J., and Skye J. Samantha argues that the circuit court: (1) erroneously determined that termination was in the children’s best interest because two of the children became “legal orphans” as a result of the court’s order; (2) erroneously found Samantha in default for failure to appear and for failure to comply with discovery orders; and (3) erroneously denied Samantha relief for excusable neglect. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
Dist I, Milwaukee County, Sanders, J., Kessler, J.
Attorneys: For Appellant: Swimmer, John S., Milwaukee; For Respondent: Karas, Jenni Spies, Wauwatosa
