(5) FACTORS IN CUSTODY AND PHYSICAL PLACEMENT DETERMINATIONS. (am) Subject to pars.

(bm) and (c), the court shall consider the following factors in making its determination: 1. The wishes of the child’s parent or parents, as shown by any stipulation between the parties, any proposed parenting plan or any legal custody or physical placement proposal submitted to the court at trial. 2. The wishes of the child, which may be communicated by the child or through the child’s guardian ad litem or other appropriate professional. 3. The interaction and interrelationship of the child with his or her parent or parents, siblings, and any other person who may significantly affect the child’s best interest 4.

one thing that sticks out to me is section 12 about does either part have a criminal record. You see I have a criminal record that ceased in 2001, and in 2008 me and the ex signed into a 50 50 custody and placement stipulation an order with no specific times because we were together....But since I have no new or pending criminal charges can they really revisit that seeing as nothing has changed since I was given 50/50 other than Mom took off..... Can they renig like that and say "oh you have a criminal recod and now were gonna take that into acct, when before when you and mom were together it didnt matter"""? jus sayin, trying to wise up what im up agasint, cause I will fight the heck out of that if they try and consider it now cause mom dont like me anymore
