Legal Question in Family Law in California

what does dissolution with ucca mean?

I was reading an article about a divorce and it read Dissolution with UCCA and since i have never heard that before was just wondering if it meant when either one of them keeps a child or has legal custody?

What I think you are referencing is the UCCJEA document you file with your petition or response. This form is used to provide information to the court concerning the child's residences since birth.

UCCA is an abbreviation that means the Uniform Child Custody Act. This acronym is used in court pleadings to denote that the divorce involves a minor child who is going to be subject to custody and vistation orders.
