1-Year Marriage Ends: Alejandro Martinez Files for Divorce from Veronica Martinez in Cook County, Citing Irreconcilable Differences on August 14, 2024
In a petition filed on March 18, 2025, Susan Donohue seeks the dissolution of her marriage to Jude Nosek, citing irretrievable breakdown as the primary cause. The couple, who married in DuPage County on June 3, 1995, had been living separately for more than six months prior to the filing. Both parties have reached the conclusion that future reconciliation is not viable, as previous efforts to restore their marriage have failed.
Susan Donohue, represented by attorney Alexandra Spognardi from Taradash Given, P.C., seeks a fair and equitable division of marital assets and debts. Despite the dissolution, the couple’s property, including bank accounts and retirement assets, remains a point of contention. Both parties are also not seeking maintenance from each other, with Susan asserting that Jude is capable of supporting himself.
The couple has two children, both of whom are emancipated, which removes custody considerations from the divorce proceedings. While the petition acknowledges the emotional strain caused by the irreconcilable differences between the parties, Susan’s approach is one of pragmatic fairness, ensuring that each party retains their respective non-marital property and debts. The case is set in Cook County, Illinois, and presents a clear example of the complex, often painful legal process of dissolving a long-term marriage where both parties are left with a shared history but distinct futures.
