As February 2025 unfolded, amidst the season of hearts and roses, Natalie C. Niehaus-Noble filed a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage, seeking closure to her nearly 18-year union with Daniel P. Noble. The petition, submitted on February 11, 2025, to the Family Court of St. Louis County, marks the beginning of an end for a marriage that began on July 30, 2007.
The couple, who had lived separately since July 2022, had experienced an irretrievable breakdown of their relationship. The petition, filed by Natalie with the guidance of her attorney, Gerald W. Linnenbringer of Linnenbringer Law, states that no further reconciliation is possible. The marriage, once filled with hope and promise, now rests under the weight of the parties’ irreconcilable differences.
Neither party is requesting maintenance, and both parties have their separate property and non-marital assets. Natalie is not requesting the division of her personal assets, and similarly, Daniel has his separate holdings. As for the marital property and debts, Natalie has requested a fair and equitable division, asking the court to either approve a Marital Settlement Agreement if the parties can reach one, or to divide the property and debts accordingly if no agreement is made.
In a month synonymous with love, this filing serves as a quiet but powerful reminder of how relationships, despite their longevity, can ultimately come to an end when irreconcilable differences take their toll. The court’s decision will determine the final resolution for the couple, both now moving forward with their separate lives.
