LOS ANGELES >> Former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling sought a divorce from his wife of nearly 60 years on Wednesday as he continues to battle her over ownership of the team.
Sterling, 81, cited irreconcilable differences in paperwork submitted to the Los Angeles Superior Court, attorney Bobby Samini said. That paperwork was rejected by the court as incomplete, but Samini said the form would be fixed and resubmitted.
Attorney Pierce O’Donnell said Shelly Sterling has no comment and had not yet seen any divorce petition.
The filing comes two weeks before the couple’s 60th anniversary and about four months after a judge ordered V.
