In a quiet St. Charles courtroom, a woman’s petition tells a story of a marriage that ended almost as soon as it began — and of a silence that stretched for more than seven years.
On May 8, 2025, Noel L. Farkas filed for dissolution of her marriage to Rocky S. Farkas, seeking to legally sever ties that, while officially formed on July 7, 2017, unraveled barely three months later in October of that same year. Since then, she has lived without word or sign from her husband. His whereabouts remain uncertain. His last known address was in Wright City, Missouri, though he may now be in Florida. The couple never reconciled, and the court has been asked to serve him by publication.
Represented by attorney Laurie A. Dodd of McMillan Dodd Law Firm LLC, Noel described a marriage “irretrievably broken” and emphasized her ability to support herself without the need for maintenance. She also requested the restoration of her maiden name, Noel Louise Nixon.
There is one child born during the marriage, but Noel states unequivocally that Rocky is not the biological father. With no shared assets that cannot be equitably divided, and no hope of salvaging a union long dormant, this filing is less a legal battle than a formal farewell to a past that ended long ago.
