Assuming biodad has not been adjudicated the father in any court, and no acknowledgement has been filed. YES.

If any filings have been already made with a court, then she must petition to change custody and placement, or at least file a notice with the court to move. She should look back at her previous paperwork if she has already had contact with the Wisconsin Courts over paternity.
