In the hallowed halls of Jackson County’s legal realm, the marital tapestry of Julie Gronquist-Blodgett and Clifford Blodgett unravels. Filed on November 29, 2023, this legal symphony, orchestrated by attorney Lindsay E. Mathews of LM Family Law, LLC, delves into the intricacies of a marriage deemed irretrievably broken.

The petitioner and respondent, residents of Jackson County, entered into matrimony on an unspecified date, ushering in the birth or adoption of five children. The court documents disclose that the couple parted ways on an unspecified date, and neither party is in the Armed Forces.

Julie seeks joint legal and physical custody of their minor children, anchored in their best interests. She petitions for child support and medical support retroactive to the filing date, with payments routed through the Family Support Payment Center.

The filing underscores the irreparable breakdown of the marriage, asserting that neither party requires maintenance, affirming their capacity to provide for their reasonable needs. Crucially, Julie implores equitable distribution of both marital and non-marital property and debts in adherence to Missouri statutes.

The document concludes with a plea for the court to acknowledge the irretrievable breakdown, dissolve the union, grant joint custody, award child support, divide marital property, and issue any other just and proper orders.
