Does Eau Claire have its own rule?
No. Wis. Admin. Code DCF § 150.03 applies across Wisconsin, so a case from Eau Claire is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is the courthouse, the clerk's procedure and how long the docket takes — not the amount.
What the statute says
Wis. Admin. Code DCF § 150.03 — Wisconsin Percentage of Income Standard. Wisconsin applies the percentage to GROSS income. Different schedules apply for shared placement (each parent has the child 25%+ of overnights), split placement, and low- or high-income payers — this is the standard schedule.
