In a dramatic turn of events, Eric Rodulio Manzanares officially filed for the dissolution of his marriage to Veronica Esmeralda Guerrero on September 5, 2023. The couple’s union, which was registered in St. Louis County, Missouri, took place on July 20, 2016. However, their once harmonious relationship began to unravel, leading to their separation in April 2020.

Eric Manzanares claimed residence in the city of St. Louis, while Veronica Guerrero, the respondent, resided in St. Louis County. The couple shares the responsibility of caring for their six-year-old child, who has resided with both parents since birth. The legal documents revealed that there are no ongoing custody battles or disputes regarding the child’s welfare with any third parties.

The petitioner, represented by attorney Elizabeth J. Ituarte, submitted a Proposed Parenting Plan for the court’s consideration, emphasizing that it is in the best interests of their child. Furthermore, Manzanares expressed his belief that there is no possibility of salvaging the broken marriage, asserting that it is “irretrievably broken.”

In conclusion, Eric Manzanares has called upon the court to dissolve his marriage to Veronica Guerrero, seeking an equitable division of marital property and debt, allocation of separate property and debt, and adoption of the provided parenting plan. As this case unfolds in the Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis, the fate of their union hangs in the balance.
