In a recent filing made on October 16, 2023, Kathleen A. Schneider and Robert W. Schneider, residents of Lake St. Louis, Missouri, have petitioned for the dissolution of their marriage, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for this significant step. The couple, who have been married since October 1, 1977, have no children, and no child support or custody arrangements are being sought.
Kathleen Schneider has engaged the services of Linnenbringer Law, with Gerald W. Linnenbringer representing her. In a comprehensive list of prayers, she has requested the dissolution of the marriage, without maintenance being awarded to either party. Furthermore, Kathleen asks that non-marital assets be set aside for each party, and any Marital Settlement Agreement they might enter into be approved by the court. In the absence of such an agreement, she insists that marital property and debts be divided fairly and equitably.
Both parties are in possession of separate property, and neither party seeks maintenance. With debts and marital properties at stake, the court is tasked with determining the fairness of any Marital Settlement Agreement or, if none exists, the equitable division of these assets and liabilities.
In a statement submitted to the court, it is made abundantly clear that “the marriage is irretrievably broken and that therefore there remains no reasonable likelihood that the marriage can be preserved.” The case is set to unravel a decades-long union, with significant financial implications.
