SB 1150: Dissolution or nullity of marriage: restoration of former name or birth name.

Existing law, with respect to a proceeding for dissolution of marriage or for nullity of marriage, requires the court, upon the request of a party, to restore the birth name or former name of that party, regardless of whether a request for restoration of the name was included in the petition.

This bill would clarify that those provisions apply to either spouse, and would make technical and nonsubstantive changes to various provisions relating to requests for restoration of a former name or birth name under those circumstances.
