Bill Summary

Allows the court to enter a judgment of dissolution of marriage or legal separation if a person is pregnant

AI Summary

This bill amends Missouri law to clarify that a person's pregnancy status cannot prevent a court from issuing a judgment of dissolution of marriage (divorce) or legal separation. The bill ensures that courts can proceed with these legal processes regardless of whether a party is pregnant, while still requiring that provisions for child custody, support, spousal maintenance, and property division are addressed to the extent the court has jurisdiction.
