In a recent legal filing out of Cook County, Illinois, Ricky A. Levin has officially submitted a petition for the dissolution of his marriage to Kimberly M. Weiner. The document, filed on November 1, 2023, cites “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the dissolution, asserting that past attempts at reconciliation have been unsuccessful, making further efforts impractical.

The couple, who tied the knot on December 7, 2007, in Cook County, is childless, with no children born or adopted during their marriage. Therefore, child support and parental decision-making are not at issue. Both parties are financially self-supporting and do not seek maintenance from each other.

The petitioner, represented by attorney David Frumm of “Frumm & Frumm,” outlines several prayers in the document. Levin seeks dissolution of the marriage and wishes to bar both parties from claiming maintenance. He also aims to secure a just portion of the marital property, including real estate, furniture, investment properties, a business (Ffology, LLC), automobiles, and deposited funds accumulated during their marriage. Additionally, the document addresses the responsibility for any marital debts and asks for the parties to cover their respective attorneys’ fees and costs.

In a noteworthy passage, the document highlights Ricky A. Levin’s conduct during the marriage as that of a “kind, loving, and affectionate spouse.” However, despite these qualities, the irreconcilable differences between the couple have led to the irretrievable breakdown of their marriage.

This legal petition sets the stage for the dissolution of a marriage that has seen its share of difficulties, with both parties seeking an equitable division of their marital assets and a clean break from their shared past.
