What began with vows in St. Charles on September 14, 2013, is now unraveling under the cold precision of court procedure. On May 9, 2025, Brandon M. Goewert filed a petition for dissolution of marriage in St. Charles County, Missouri, citing the irretrievable breakdown of his nearly twelve-year union with Kendra M. Goewert. Represented by Kevin D. Morris of Boehmer Law, LLC, Brandon asks the court to sever the marital bond with finality—absent any hope for reconciliation.
There has been no physical separation yet. The couple, both residents of Missouri, continue to reside under the same roof with their two minor children, whose best interests Brandon emphasizes. He proposes joint legal and joint physical custody as laid out in a concurrently filed Parenting Plan. The petition underscores that no other custody litigation is pending, and no third party claims rights to the children. It also requests that enforcement mechanisms be placed behind any court-ordered custody arrangements to ensure compliance.
Neither party seeks maintenance. Each, the petition asserts, is financially independent. The division of property and debts accumulated over the marriage is to be decided equitably by the court. Brandon affirms that while certain assets belong solely to each, shared obligations and property exist, requiring just allocation.
Ultimately, this petition is a declaration that a shared past cannot forge a shared future. The marriage, Brandon maintains, has run its course. What remains now is to disentangle lives once joined, with the law as both scalpel and salve.
