Summary
Amends the Code of Civil Procedure. Repeals a Section concerning notice by publication requirements in a petition for change of name. Provides that in any application for a change of name involving a minor, before a judgment granting a change of name may be entered, actual notice and an opportunity to be heard shall be given to any parent whose parental rights have not been previously terminated and to any person who has been allocated parental responsibilities under the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. Provides that notice and an opportunity to be heard shall be given to persons outside this State as specified in other provisions of the Code. Amends the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. Provides that unless the person whose marriage is dissolved or declared invalid requests otherwise, the court order shall contain a provision authorizing the person to resume the use of his or her former or maiden name, should he or she choose to do so, at any time he or she chooses to do so (instead of "upon request by a wife whose marriage is dissolved or declared invalid, the court shall order her maiden name or a former name restored").
