Where it fits in the property workflow
It is one possible bridge between a final allocation and the entered judgment’s operative property provisions.
Always open the official California Courts page before use. It provides the current revision, current download and any translations or instructions; this guide intentionally does not host a copy that can become stale.
Prepare before touching the form
- Match each award and obligation to the signed agreement or ruling
- State equalizing-payment amount, timing and security completely
- Preserve retirement-order, sale, refinance and transfer details in appropriate language
The handoff to the next document
Record what form FL-345 proves, what it merely reports, and the source documents behind its financial statements. The same asset, debt, date and amount should not acquire a new identity simply because it crosses from an intake schedule to a pleading, proof, attachment or judgment package.
Boundary to keep visible
A short award label cannot replace implementation terms needed to make a transfer or protect against nonperformance.
