B307559
California Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District · Filed
Published · citable
Holding
The court held that a premarital agreement that fails to satisfy Family Code § 1615 is **void**, not merely voidable, and therefore cannot be ratified under Civil Code § 1588; because the trial court treated the agreement as ratifiable, it erred in granting summary judgment and the case was remanded for trial on the malpractice claim. ---
