What’s Going On With Kate Walsh’s Divorce?

It looks like the divorce for Kate Walsh and Alex Young is getting ugly, even though the couple was only married for 10 months, according to TMZ.

Alex is claiming that accounting firm London & Co. is refusing to release a full accounting of all joint assets. Young says a month before they got married back in 2007, they bought a multi-million dollar house together and furnished it with expensive stuff.

In California, and without a prenuptial agreement, it doesn’t matter who made the money, who is seeking the divorce or why. Both parties are required by law to give a full accounting and “disclose” all Community Assets. So the fact that Kate made the lion’s share of the down payment really doesn’t matter. Also there’s probably not much value there considering the house has gone down in value since they bought it — so there is no equity to split. Also not important is the fact that Alex walked out on Kate…

Also according to TMZ Kate is now requesting a trial date, which is not always a good sign for settlement purposes.

Considering the state of our economy and the fact that the major asset is probably not worth that much the Parties should truly consider negotiation AND maybe a prenuptial agreement next time.  I always like the see the Parties work out their differences instead of fighting it out in court…
