Relating to an agreed divorce order in a suit for dissolution of a marriage.

HB 2971 streamlines uncontested divorces in Texas by allowing courts to adopt written divorce agreements without requiring parties to testify or appear in person. The bill requires agreements to include signatures, marriage/separation dates, property division details (separate vs. community property), and child-related terms (parenting plans, child support) if applicable, along with supporting affidavits verifying fairness and children's best interests. Courts must approve agreements they deem "just and right" and in children's best interest; if not, the case continues. This directly affects married couples seeking uncontested divorces who have mutually agreed on all terms.
