Introduced
by
To revise the state divorce law to reflect the provisions of House Bill 5587, which would establish in statute that, upon the death of her husband, a wife's dower right to a life estate in 1/3 of any land he owned during his lifetime is abolished and unenforceable. This would not affect, limit, or void any contractual or other legal rights the wife otherwise possesses or acquires during the marriage.
Referred to the Committee on Judiciary
