WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: Herbert Raymond Glidewell v. Jill Irene Riley
Case No.: 2017AP414
Officials: Brennan, P.J., Kessler and Brash, JJ.
Focus: Child Custody Modification
Jill Irene Riley (f/k/a Jill Irene Glidewell) appeals the order dismissing, on the merits, her motion for review of the family court commissioner’s decision denying her request to modify child custody and placement. The sole issue on appeal is whether in conducting its review, the circuit court held a hearing de novo as required by WIS. STAT. § 757.69(8) (2015- 16). We conclude that it did not. Accordingly, we reverse and remand so that the circuit court can afford Riley the hearing to which she is statutorily entitled.
