Summary

The bill amends dozens of California statutes to tighten how auto‑loan contracts disclose costs, simplify disclosure requirements in divorce when a separation judgment exists, give children a voice in custody cases, streamline employer‑violation notice and cure processes, and expand a personal representative’s authority over partnership interests. It affects car buyers, divorcing spouses, children in custody disputes, employees and employers, and estates of deceased partners. The changes aim to increase transparency, protect vulnerable parties, and modernize procedural rules.
