Andrea Card filed a petition in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, seeking a dissolution of her marriage to Noel Card. The filing, recorded at 1:50 p.m. on April 2, 2026, details a marriage that began on April 13, 2018, in Binghamton, New York, and notes that no children were born or adopted during the union. The petition asserts that irreconcilable differences have caused the marriage to break down irretrievably, that prior attempts at reconciliation have failed, and that further efforts would be impracticable.
The petition carefully distinguishes marital and non-marital property, requesting that the court equitably divide marital assets and debts while confirming each party’s ownership of non-marital property and debts. No prior agreements exist between the parties regarding the allocation of these holdings. The document seeks a judgment that provides clarity and legal resolution to the distribution of property and debt, along with any further relief the court may deem just.
Verification accompanies the petition, certifying under penalty of perjury that the statements are true to the best of the petitioner’s knowledge and belief. The filing emphasizes procedural thoroughness, underscoring the court’s role in providing a framework to formalize the end of the marital relationship.
The filing situates itself within the steady mechanisms of the legal system: a recorded acknowledgment of separation, allocation of responsibility, and the delineation of financial boundaries. It reflects the measured approach by which domestic dissolution is addressed, offering both parties a formal conclusion and a legal reckoning with the past arrangements.
