  1  7                           EXPLANATION
  1  8    This bill amends Code section 598.8 relating to the
  1  9 exceptions to the holding of a hearing in a dissolution of
  1 10 marriage action by eliminating the provision that prohibits
  1 11 the court from entering a decree of dissolution without a
  1 12 hearing if there were children of the marriage for whom
  1 13 support might be ordered.  The same prohibition is also
  1 14 eliminated when a respondent has not entered an appearance or
  1 15 filed a motion or pleading in the case and the waiting period
  1 16 of 90 days, with exceptions, has expired.  The bill would not
  1 17 change the provisions that require the parties to certify in
  1 18 writing that there has been a breakdown of the marriage
  1 19 relationship, to file all documents required by the court, and
  1 20 to provide a written agreement settling all of the issues
  1 21 involved in the dissolution of marriage.
