Hartung v. Hartung

Cite

102 Wis. 2d 58, 306 N.W.2d 16 (1981)

$200 per month maintenance for 18 months was not sufficient – it does not cover the minimum expenses of maintaining the household and supporting the children.

The court here did not articulate and use the standards the legislature has set.
