Rosario Alberto Galindo Esparza has filed for dissolution of his marriage to Ana Lilia Alvarez Barajas, with the petition submitted on July 23, 2024, in the Circuit Court of St. Louis. Represented by Elizabeth J. Ituarte of Ituarte & Ituarte, P.C., Esparza cites irreconcilable differences, leading to an irretrievable breakdown of their nearly 28-year marriage. The couple, who married on September 14, 1996, in Tonala, Jalisco, Mexico, separated on October 1, 2020. They share a minor child, born in 2010, who has been living exclusively with Barajas since their separation.
Esparza’s petition includes a proposed parenting plan that he believes serves the best interests of their child. The document indicates that neither party is seeking spousal maintenance, as both are employed and self-sufficient. Furthermore, the couple’s assets and debts, both marital and separate, are to be equitably divided by the court. There are no ongoing custody disputes or claims by third parties regarding their child, and neither Esparza nor Barajas is currently serving in the armed forces.
Esparza requests that the court officially dissolve the marriage, set aside non-marital property, and distribute marital assets and liabilities fairly. The petition underscores the couple’s inability to reconcile and the necessity of formalizing their separation for the well-being of all involved.
