On October 4, 2023, Phalanda McMath of St. Louis County, Missouri, took the decisive step of filing for the dissolution of her marriage to Leon McMath, a resident of St. Louis City as well. This union, forged around November 24, 2001, has produced no offspring, and the separation is characterized by an irretrievable breakdown. The document abstains from assigning blame.

Phalanda McMath has articulated a series of prayers to the court, including the acknowledgment of the marriage’s irretrievable brokenness, the issuance of a Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage, and the exclusion of maintenance for either party. Additionally, she seeks to allocate separate property and potentially approve a Marital Settlement Agreement. Financial details remain undisclosed.

Terry L. Kaufman of Terry L. Kaufman, LLC, is retained as Phalanda McMath’s legal representative. The petitioner opts not to request maintenance.

While the document doesn’t delve into financial specifics, it offers a window into the dissolution process initiated by Phalanda McMath, signaling a significant chapter in the lives of these two Missourians.
