Plain-English Summary

Before a hearing for a dissolution of marriage or civil union, or an annulment, the parties or their attorneys provide the information required by the judges of the Superior Court, on forms prescribed by the chief court administrator and furnished by the clerk.

This is the statistical and vital-records side of a divorce — the report that records the ending of a marriage — and the section makes providing it a precondition of the hearing rather than an afterthought.
