How Long Do DOMESTIC PARTNERS Have to Wait to DISSOLVE Their Partnership?
|
Q. Is it true that domestic partners who want to dissolve their partnership don't have to wait the six months that married couples have to wait when they divorce?
A. Nope.
If you qualify under Family Code section 299 (a sort of "summary proceeding") to terminate your RDP
by filing a Notice of Termination with the California Secretary of State instead of a court proceeding, you still have to wait the same six months that straight couples must wait. If you don't qualify under section 299 you have to go through exactly the same court disso process that married couples enjoy
: @ (
Moreover, if the your partner files a notice of revocation of the termination of domestic partnership during that same six months, then either or both of you will need to file a court proceeding to legally terminate your registered domestic partnership (RDP) status. |
