A Wisconsin Order Converting Legal Separation to Divorce is a court order issued by a circuit court judge which terminates a legal separation in the state of Wisconsin and replaces it with a divorce. The grounds for a legal separation in Wisconsin are the same as for a divorce, but the court does not terminate the marriage in a legal separation. Rather, the court issues orders on issues such as child custody, visitation, child support, property division, and spousal support. In a Wisconsin Order Converting Legal Separation to Divorce, the court modifies the existing orders and terminates the legal separation, replacing it with a divorce. The court may also issue new orders related to these issues, as well as any other matters related to the marriage. There are two types of Wisconsin Order Converting Legal Separation to Divorce: a voluntary conversion, which is when both parties agree to convert the legal separation to a divorce, and an involuntary conversion, which is when only one party requests the conversion. The process for obtaining either type of conversion is the same; the parties must file a motion to convert the legal separation to a divorce and include any new orders or changes to existing orders that are necessary.
