Relates to automatic orders in matrimonial actions
This New York bill requires spouses in divorce cases to notify each other within 10 days if either receives notice of tax liens, foreclosures, bankruptcy filings, or related litigation that could harm the marital estate. It establishes automatic orders that take effect immediately upon filing the divorce papers (for the plaintiff) or service of the papers (for the defendant). These orders remain binding until the divorce is finalized or the case ends, unless modified by court order. The key new provision is the mandatory 10-day notice requirement for financial threats affecting shared assets.
