A bill to amend 1939 PA 168, entitled “An act to determine whether certain marriages solemnized in another state by individuals authorized to solemnize marriages under the laws of that state are to be recognized in this state,” by amending section 1 (MCL 551.271), as amended by 1996 PA 334; and to repeal acts and parts of acts.
