Linda Mathis Files for Divorce from Judge Mathis

Additional Coverage:

Judge Mathis, known for dishing out rulings on television, is now facing his own legal battle as his wife, Linda, has filed for divorce. After 39 years of marriage, Linda took legal action last Thursday, citing irreconcilable differences and marking July 17 as their official date of separation.

The legal documents reveal that there are no minor children from the marriage, alleviating any potential disputes over custody or child support. The couple shares four adult children and has grandchildren.

Linda is seeking spousal support and has requested that the court deny any similar financial support to Judge Mathis. It remains unclear whether a prenuptial agreement exists.

The couple wed in June 1985, shortly after Judge Mathis completed his college education and years before he became a television personality with his own courtroom show, which debuted in 1999.
