January 22, 2026, arrived as a quiet but resolute turning point in the life of Sharee Harris. That day, she, represented by attorneys Mark W. Haefner, Elizabeth P. Tadrick, and Sabrina A. Davis of Haefner Law Office LLC, formally filed a petition for the dissolution of her marriage to Carnell Harris in the Circuit Court of St. Louis County, Missouri. The couple, married on April 6, 2016, had separated on December 15, 2025, leaving behind no children but a web of shared financial and marital entanglements.
The petition details a careful and structured appeal to the court. Sharee requests that the marriage be declared irretrievably broken and dissolved, that each party retain their separate property, and that marital property and debts be divided equitably. A key component of her filing is the request for financial support: she asks the court to order Carnell to pay a portion of her attorney’s fees and to provide spousal maintenance, acknowledging her limited resources against his ability to contribute. Additionally, Sharee seeks to reclaim her identity by restoring her maiden name, Sharee Lasha Gunn.
Throughout the petition, there is a sense of measured precision: the narrative of a marriage concluded, framed not by emotion but by careful legal architecture. It emphasizes fairness, financial accountability, and personal restoration. January, traditionally a month of fresh beginnings, in this case marks both an ending and the deliberate assertion of agency—where the dissolution of a marriage is codified in law, and personal boundaries are formally recognized by the court.
