“Ms. Zimmerman’s divorce filing is not altogether surprising. North Carolina laws allow for spouses to seek certain spousal and marital rights based upon the other spouse’s marital misconduct. Whether Ms. Zimmerman’s perjury charges or her estranged husband’s murder trial have any effect on their Florida divorce case is yet to be seen,” comments Miller Cushing Holladay Founding Partner, Christopher Miller.
