In a case unfolding within the Circuit Court of St. Louis County, Missouri, Steven J. King has filed for the dissolution of his marriage to Tina R. King. The petition, filed on November 8, 2024, highlights a marriage that began on April 27, 2013, but now faces the inevitable reality of an irretrievably broken relationship. The couple, who have lived separately since their last shared days, did not have children born of the marriage, making the dissolution a matter of property and finances.
Both parties are gainfully employed and capable of supporting themselves, which removes the need for any spousal maintenance. While no specific property arrangements have been made, Steven King has requested that the court order an equitable division of marital assets and debts. He further asserts the need for each party’s non-marital property to be returned as separate assets. If the parties have entered a property settlement agreement, the court is asked to deem it fair and not unconscionable. The petitioner also wishes to see Tina restored to her maiden name, Tina Rena Kimberly.
Represented by attorney Terry L. Kaufman, Steven’s petition stresses a clear and practical path forward: no maintenance, an equitable property division, and a clean break from a marriage that has come to its natural end. The case is now in the hands of the court, which will determine the final fate of the couple’s shared assets and responsibilities.
