In the heart of St. Louis County, Missouri, a chapter that commenced on March 17, 2018, is now at a crossroads. Arnold Dewitt Bullock, Jr. has taken a significant step by filing for marriage dissolution from Alyssa Kae Bullock, marking a turning point in their journey.

Filed on September 8, 2023, the document reveals that the couple shares the responsibility of raising two children, their ages not disclosed in the text. The reasons behind this decision remain veiled in the legal prose, but the filing states, “There is no reasonable likelihood that the marriage of Petitioner and Respondent can be preserved, and, therefore, the marriage is irretrievably broken.”

Petitioner Arnold Dewitt Bullock, Jr. presents a series of prayers to the court, reflecting a desire for an equitable resolution. These include the court’s dissolution of the marriage, joint physical and joint legal custody of the children, with the petitioner designated as the residential parent. Additionally, the petitioner seeks child support from the respondent, with retroactive effect. The division of marital property and debts is also on the agenda, with the aim of achieving fairness and equity.

The legal voice representing Arnold Dewitt Bullock, Jr. is Mary Ann Weems from the Law Offices of Mary Ann Weems. The document leaves the door open for further orders deemed just and proper by the court.

While details about debts, marital and non-marital properties, or their desired resolutions remain undisclosed, this chapter in St. Louis County, Missouri, bears witness to a transformative journey, guided by a vision of a different future.
