← 🇧🇪 Chambre des représentants/PROPOSITION DE LOIbe-56-1420

Proposition de loi modifiant le Code civil en vue d'harmoniser la pratique en matière de divorce entre les arrondissements judiciaires.

Stage en_commissionUpdated 3mo ago

This is a Belgian private member's bill (proposition de loi) in the Chamber of Representatives that would amend the Civil Code. Its stated aim is to harmonise how divorce cases are handled across the country's different judicial districts (arrondissements judiciaires), so that similar cases are treated more consistently regardless of the court involved. Based on the title alone, the bill concerns procedural and substantive divorce rules rather than a broader overhaul of family law. The bill would mainly affect people going through divorce in Belgium, as well as the family courts and legal practitioners who handle these cases. The exact changes cannot be determined from metadata alone; the full text would show what is being standardised and how.
