Listen to this articleWI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. L.I.,
Case No.: 2021AP816; 2021AP817
Officials: WHITE, J.
Focus: Termination of Parental Rights
L.I. appeals the circuit court orders terminating her parental rights to her children, F.G. and R.G. L.I. argues that the court erroneously weighed the children’s harm from severing the relationship with their respective foster parents against the harm from severing the relationship with their mother. We disagree that the court’s consideration of additional factors constitutes an erroneous exercise of discretion, and accordingly, we affirm.
