In the heartland of Jackson County, Missouri, a quiet marriage faces an uncertain future. Hollie M. Medlin, a resident of Lee’s Summit, and her husband, Randall L. Medlin, also of Lee’s Summit, find themselves at a crossroads. The wedded journey that began in Warrensburg, Missouri, on April 1, 2006, has fractured, and the couple officially separated in October 2022.

With no impending arrival and citing irreconcilable differences, Hollie M. Medlin seeks a Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage. The marriage, deemed irretrievably broken, has borne two children. A minor child, whose home state remains Missouri, where they have resided for the past six months, and an emancipated child, now aged 25.

Amidst the dissolution, no external parties seek custody or visitation rights with the minor child, ensuring a straightforward custody arrangement. Hollie M. Medlin and Randall L. Medlin are prepared to jointly share legal and physical custody, with the latter’s address designated for educational and mailing purposes. Financial support for the minor child is paramount, encompassing health insurance coverage and shared responsibility for non-covered health care expenses.

Assets and debts, both marital and non-marital, demand equitable division, guided by the possibility of a Marital Settlement Agreement. Neither party seeks maintenance nor requests attorney fees or litigation costs. Rebecca L. Leonard of The Gordon Law Firm, LLC, represents Hollie M. Medlin in this legal endeavor. The case was filed on September 8, 2023. As the case unfolds, the court shall decide the fate of this marriage, its children, and the property it once held together.
