On October 2, 2024, Ervin P. Stanford filed a petition for the dissolution of his marriage to Susie Stanford in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. The couple, who wed in August 2021 in Negril, Jamaica, has been living under the same roof but separately since March 2024 due to irreconcilable differences that have led to the breakdown of their marriage. There are no children involved in the marriage.
Petitioner Ervin, represented by Attorney Marlena Johnson from Village Legal, is requesting that Susie acquire her own healthcare coverage, as she is healthy and capable of doing so. Ervin also seeks exclusive ownership of their home, which he purchased prior to the marriage. Both parties have agreed to retain their individual pensions and vehicles, with Ervin waiving any claim to Susie’s pension. Additionally, Ervin requests that each party be held responsible for the debt incurred in their respective names since the separation.
The petition emphasizes that both parties are financially independent, and reconciliation is not viable. Ervin seeks a final judgment to dissolve their marriage and to resolve all marital issues with a marital settlement agreement, aiming for a fair resolution.
