Jennifer Marie Vanderboegh has initiated proceedings to dissolve her marriage to Dustin Dale Vanderboegh, filing the petition in St. Charles County on March 18, 2026. The document recounts a shared history extending nearly two decades in residence within the county, and a marriage formally entered on July 5, 2006, in St. Louis County, Missouri. The couple has been physically separated since May 3, 2024, and the filing establishes the marriage as irretrievably broken.

The petition outlines the structure of family life as it existed, noting three minor children whose custody and support remain unresolved. Jennifer Vanderboegh seeks joint legal custody while requesting sole physical custody, with visitation rights to be granted to Dustin Vanderboegh. The filing includes detailed provisions for child support calculations according to Missouri Rule 88.01 and Form 14, reflecting both parties’ capacities and financial responsibilities.

In addition to custody matters, the petition details marital and separate property, as well as debts, and requests maintenance from Dustin Vanderboegh due to Jennifer Vanderboegh’s lack of sufficient income and assets. The petition also seeks to restore her maiden name, Jennifer Marie Labath, and for the respondent to contribute to attorney fees and other costs associated with the proceeding.

The submission was notarized on the filing date, attesting to the veracity of the statements contained within the petition. Legal representation for Jennifer Vanderboegh is provided by Cynthia L. Albin of Todt, Cody & Albin, LLC, whose office is located in St. Charles.

While the petition itself is procedural, it situates the family’s adjustment within the measured cadence of legal resolution. It reflects a process designed to delineate responsibilities, establish accountability, and provide structured closure, allowing the parties and the court to move forward within defined statutory frameworks.
