The dawn of 2025 brings a new chapter for Brittany Anne Morris and Greyson Atley Barnett. On January 7, 2025, Morris filed a petition for dissolution of marriage in the 16th Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri, marking the official end of their four-year union that began on October 19, 2020. Represented by attorney Larry S. Buccero of Buccero & VanFleet, LLC, Morris asserts that the marriage is “irretrievably broken” and seeks a court judgment to finalize their separation.
Morris and Barnett, both residents of Blue Springs, Missouri, have two young children from their marriage. In her petition, Morris requests sole legal custody, emphasizing the need for consistency in decision-making, while proposing joint physical custody to ensure both parents maintain meaningful relationships with the children. She also seeks to designate her address as the children’s official residence for school and mailing purposes.
The petition further requests equitable division of marital property and debts, with non-marital assets assigned individually. Morris notes that both parties are financially independent and do not require spousal maintenance. Additionally, she urges the court to uphold or adjust child support provisions, including the continuation of health benefits for the children.
As the case unfolds, the court will determine whether the shared parenting plan proposed by Morris can be reconciled with Barnett’s position, ushering in a new framework for their family.
