(a)
Upon request by a party to a petition for dissolution of marriage, nullity of marriage, or legal separation, the court shall order a pleading that lists the parties’ financial assets and liabilities and provides the location or identifying information about those assets and liabilities sealed. The request may be made by ex parte application. Nothing sealed pursuant to this section may be unsealed except upon petition to the court and good cause shown.
(b)
Commencing not later than July 1, 2005, the Judicial Council form used to declare assets and liabilities of the parties in a proceeding for dissolution of marriage, nullity of marriage, or legal separation of the parties shall require the party filing the form to state whether the declaration contains identifying information on the assets and liabilities listed
therein. If the party making the request uses a pleading other than the Judicial Council form, the pleading shall exhibit a notice on the front page, in bold capital letters, that the pleading lists and identifies financial information and is therefore subject to this section.
(c)
For purposes of this section, “pleading” means a document that sets forth or declares the parties’ assets and liabilities, income and expenses, a marital settlement agreement that lists and identifies the parties’ assets and liabilities, or any document filed with the court incidental to the declaration or agreement that lists and identifies financial information.
(d)
The party making the request to seal a pleading pursuant to subdivision (a) shall serve a copy of the pleading on the other party to the proceeding and file a proof of service with the request to seal the pleading.
(e)
Nothing in this section precludes a party to a proceeding described
in this section from using any document or information contained in a sealed pleading in any manner that is not otherwise prohibited by law.
