A marriage that began with vows in Cook County on June 1, 2019, now finds its ending in the same place where it was first recorded. On September 24, 2025, William Weber, through his attorney Frida Silva of Taradash Given, P.C., filed a petition for dissolution of marriage against his wife, Molly Crane. The petition tells of two people, once bound by shared intentions, who now stand apart after more than six years together.
The couple has no children, nor expectations of children to come, leaving property, debts, and the traces of what they built together as the matters for the court to untangle. William asserts that the marriage has been broken beyond repair, shaped by irreconcilable differences that could not be reconciled despite time apart and past efforts. He asks that each party be awarded their own non-marital property and debts, and that the court divide their marital assets and liabilities equitably—bank accounts, retirement accounts, and obligations included.
The filing emphasizes that both William and Molly are capable of supporting themselves. No request for maintenance is made, signaling an ending not marked by dependency but by division and disentanglement. What remains is the legal work of giving form to what has already taken place in lived reality: a separation that hardened into permanence.
Thus, in a courtroom reached now by video or phone, a union once declared in public is set to be undone in the quiet language of petitions, orders, and judgments.
