On May 14, 2025, in the quiet corridors of the Jackson County Courthouse in Kansas City, a formal petition signaled the end of a union that had spanned just over three years. Shaday L. Gomez, through her attorney Anthony J. Moreno of Moreno Law, LLC, filed for the dissolution of her marriage to Charles D. Figueroa, citing the irretrievable breakdown of their relationship.
The couple married on October 14, 2021, in Fort Myers, Florida. But by November 2024, the foundation had cracked, leading to their separation. There are no children from the marriage, and Gomez confirmed she is not pregnant. Both parties, now living in separate states—Gomez in Jackson County, Missouri, and Figueroa in Orange County, Florida—are employed and over the age of eighteen.
In her petition, Gomez asserts that reconciliation is no longer possible. She requests the court to dissolve the marriage, divide both marital and separate property equitably, and set apart each party’s individual assets and debts. She seeks no financial maintenance and requests that both she and the respondent cover their own attorney fees and litigation costs.
There are no dramatic financial entanglements, no requests for spousal support, no custody disputes to wade through—just a concise request to sever legal ties. Gomez’s filing carries the quiet weight of a relationship that has run its course, with the machinery of the legal system now tasked to disassemble what once promised permanence.
