Bill > HB732

This bill repeals Section 6.106 of the Texas Family Code, which relates to annulment of marriage on the grounds of impotency. By removing this specific section of the law, the bill effectively eliminates impotency as a legal basis for seeking an annulment in Texas. The change will only apply to marriage dissolution suits filed on or after September 1, 2025, meaning that any suits filed before this date will still be governed by the existing law. This suggests a legislative decision to remove a specific grounds for marriage annulment, potentially reflecting changing social or legal perspectives on the relevance of this particular marital dissolution criteria. The bill's implementation is clearly defined with a specific effective date of September 1, 2025, providing clear guidance for legal practitioners and individuals seeking to understand the updated marriage dissolution statutes.
