In a filing dated September 21, 2023, Riley Cornett, a resident of Missouri, lodged a petition for the dissolution of marriage against Avery Cornett, also a resident of Missouri as well. The couple, married since September 8, 2021, cited “irreconcilable differences” as the grounds for their separation, affirming that there was no foreseeable means of salvaging the union.
Notably, there are no offspring from their marriage, rendering child custody matters irrelevant. Both parties, each over the age of eighteen, maintain employment and assert financial independence, precluding the necessity for spousal maintenance.
The petitioner, Riley Cornett, called upon the court to not only acknowledge the irreparable state of the marriage but also to formally dissolve it. Additionally, they requested the court to allocate separate property, equitably divide marital assets, and handle marital debts according to Section 452.330. The petitioner emphasized their willingness to abide by any further orders deemed fair and just by the court.
Joseph R. Burcke, of Joseph R. Burcke, L.L.C., represents Riley Cornett in this legal proceeding. While specifics about debts and properties remain undisclosed in the filing, the case poses as a prominent example of a marriage dissolution rooted in irrevocable discord.
