Description
After some 25 years of marriage the parties wished to dissolve their marital bonds. They also desired to avoid the expense of attorney fees. To these ends they purchased a publication entitled, "The $27 Divorce." What followed thereafter is a classic example of what may occur when laymen blindly follow a form book to determine their legal rights. The husband underlined portions of that pamphlet which he deemed pertinent to be read by the wife. Thereafter the parties filled in the blanks in a petition form. In one paragraph of the petition they provided for a near equal division of their assets, those assets being an estimated $11,000 equity in a home, two automobiles, and certain other items of personal property. That portion of the prayer which referred to "maintenance" was crossed out.
