This workflow asks questions to automatically fill out the California Judicial Council Forms for a Petition for divorce in California. It considers divorces with or without children, and with or without property.
When initiating a divorce proceeding involving children in California, you may need to fill out the FL-105 UCCJEA form. This form is required when any legal action involves determining custody and visitation arrangements, as it provides the court detailed information about the children's residence history for the past five years. The purpose of this form is to help the court establish jurisdiction over child custody matters under the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA).
Completing the FL-105 form is triggered by the presence of minor children in the marriage and the need to address their living arrangements and visitation rights post-separation. It ensures that the custody decision is made by the appropriate court and is crucial for anyone involved in a divorce or custody battle, including to finalize a divorce proceeding. Failing to provide accurate information can lead to legal complications, making this one of the first steps in a custody-related legal process.
