During this time, the court will not proceed with the divorce or other court proceedings. The couple may seek counseling, mediation, or other forms of reconciliation while the proceedings are suspended. There are two types of Wisconsin Stipulation Suspending Proceedings to Effect Reconciliation: Temporary and Permanent.
