"Section 5. The Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
Marriage Act is amended by changing Section 105 as follows:
(750 ILCS 5/105) (from Ch. 40, par. 105)
Sec. 105. Application of Civil Practice Law.)
(a) The The provisions of the Civil Practice Law shall
apply to all proceedings under this Act, except as otherwise
provided in this Act.
(b) A proceeding for dissolution of marriage, legal
separation or declaration of invalidity of marriage shall be
entitled "In re the Marriage of ... and ...". A parental

(c) The initial pleading in all proceedings under this Act
shall be denominated a petition. A responsive pleading shall
be denominated a response. If new matter by way of defense is
pleaded in the response, a reply may be filed by the
petitioner, but the failure to reply is not an admission of the
legal sufficiency of the new matter. All other pleadings under
this Act shall be denominated as provided in the Civil
Practice Law.
(d) As used in this Section, "pleadings" includes any
petition or motion filed in the dissolution of marriage case
which, if independently filed, would constitute a separate
cause of action, including, but not limited to, actions for
declaratory judgment, injunctive relief, and orders of
protection. Actions under this subsection are subject to
motions filed pursuant to Sections 2-615 and 2-619 of the Code
of Civil Procedure.
