A San Diego divorce news report summed up the Sandra Bullock Jesse James marriage and divorce. Here, a San Diego divorce attorney provides an analysis to the case. What did we learn? How did the parties go from picture perfect marriage, to divorce in an instant? Why didn't Sandra see the high probability of this ending with divorce?
The San Diego news story originated from work performed by AP Entertainment writer, Sandy Cohen. It's a well researched article and added to my knowledge of this case. Reportedly, the couple met in 2003 and married in 2005. So many marriages that end in divorce were marriages entered into by impulse. Here, two years of dating should have exposed all personality traits and faults. However, reportedly, Jesse was married twice previously and this was Sandra's first marriage. Sandra was approximately 41 years old when she married Jesse. Reportedly, Sandra had previously dated actors (for example, Matthew McConaughey), and football star Troy Aikman. At age 41 wouldn't she be a fairly good judge of character? And, how did she go from the clean cut type to Jesse?
The 'not previously married' phrase may be the answer; however at age 41 and after dating Jesse for two years one would think that she knew what she was getting into. The Discovery Channel reportedly linked Jesse's genealogy to the infamous Jesse James outlaw. However more recently, his second wife was reportedly an adult movie actor. One reasonable conclusion is that Sandra took a calculated risk and proceeded with the marriage believing that the relationship would be beneficial to her career.
An analysis of the divorce proceedings demonstrates wise decisions made by Sandra. This blog previously provided an evaluation of the decisions and tactics that she used. Briefly, she first went into seclusion, probably to put together her A-Team of divorce lawyers. (In San Diego Certified Family Law Specialist attorneys would be the correct choice for this situation.) She filed in Texas as she had a jurisdictional basis to do so. This put her case into a fault divorce state (in case Jesse wanted to fight). It eliminated California’s six month waiting period for the divorce finalization. It assisted Sandra’s child custody case (with newly adopted child). It helped to shield Sandra from a support request by Jesse. It brought about an instant child custody move away by Sandra and the child which otherwise could have bogged down in the California courts due to numerous custody move away, relocation cases since 1996.
These divorce, custody, support and jurisdictional decisions are appreciated as brilliant by this blog. All of America wishes the best for Sandra Bullock. The San Diego child custody attorneys at the Law Office of Thomas M. Huguenor handle all of the issues represented by this case.
