I didn’t realize that the ‘beloved’ chairman of NASCAR, Brian France, is getting a divorce! Not until an article came out saying that an appeals court ruled that the events of the legal dispute will take place in open court.
I guess someone wanted to keep it as hush-hush as possible. The North Carolina appeals court gave more credence to the public’s right to open court proceedings than to the premise of keeping some details quiet.
Before this decision was made, some papers that were filed can still remain in secret unless the judge sitting on the case needs to do something else with them. Those papers would be the contract regarding property settlement, child support and custody and alimony.
Finances was one of the huge items Mr. France wanted to keep out of the limelight.
We’ll see how it goes. Divorces are no fun. Parties “turn.” It’s like a full moon rises over the event and one of the spouses spouts teeth & hair, acts totally unlike herself and then some weird, unsubstantiated stuff starts to float out about you! I’m just saying. Funny things happen when the emotions are smite.
