In a recent legal filing in St. Louis County, Missouri, Michelle Lee has initiated proceedings to legally separate from her husband, Richard Lee. The petition was officially filed on September 25, 2023, and while details about their marriage date and the ages of their children remain undisclosed, it is known that they had two children together who are now emancipated.
The filing reveals that Michelle Lee is seeking several outcomes from the legal separation, including a determination that the marriage is not irretrievably broken. The petitioner has also requested the court to adjudge and decree their legal separation and allocate non-marital property to each party as per the law. Additionally, Michelle Lee is seeking an equitable division of marital property and debts, with further orders deemed just and proper.
The legal representation for Michelle Lee is Spirn Family Law, with attorneys Michel J. Spirn, Alexandra D. Noll, and Sara O. Feldner listed in the filing. While the text does not mention whether child support, sole responsibility for children, or parental decision-making is being sought, it does confirm that no arrangements have been made regarding maintenance payments.
The case is drawing attention due to the high-stakes nature of the legal separation and the intricacies of dividing accumulated assets and debts. Unfortunately, the filing does not provide any direct quotes to shed light on the specific issues leading to the legal separation.
