After 18 years of marriage, Marquinette Williams-Anthony has filed for the dissolution of her marriage to David Russell Anthony in Jackson County, Missouri, citing irretrievable breakdown as the reason. The petition was filed on September 18, 2024, by Marquinette’s attorney, Mitzi J. Alspaugh of North Kansas City, MO. The couple, who married on September 17, 2006, in Kansas City, separated recently in July 2024. There are no children from the marriage, and Marquinette is requesting the court to restore her maiden name, Williams.
Throughout their marriage, the couple accumulated both marital assets and debts, which the court will either divide equitably or approve a stipulated settlement if one is agreed upon by both parties. Marquinette noted that neither she nor David are members of the U.S. armed forces.
The petition emphasizes Marquinette’s desire for a fair division of property and for the restoration of her maiden name. No other extraordinary requests or circumstances were noted, and the dissolution seeks a straightforward resolution to the separation. The couple’s long-standing relationship now stands on the edge of dissolution, with only the legal formalities remaining to be completed.
