In today’s ‘Petty As Hell’ news, we’re covering the interesting  divorce demands between Jill Scott and her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Michael Dobson. As you have probably already figured out, Michael’s demands are pretty petty and simultaneously entertaining, I must admit.

What Jill Scott’s Estranged Hubby Wants Back

As Jill and Michael move forward in their bitter divorce, Michael is making sure he gets ALL his stuff back from Jill! Get this- dude even wants his shoehorn and his Prince “Purple Rain” album back, among other petty level items:

Via TMZ: Michael Dobson filed docs in his divorce case with Jill … asking the judge to punish her and make her hand over his Prince album along with a bunch of other personal items. In docs, obtained by TMZ, Michael says he’s been pestering her to get his belongings from their house, but can’t because she changed the locks back in September 2017. He says she’s also got a grip on 5 hotel robes, a massage table, a Dewalt laser level and worst of all … an extended shoehorn!

This kinda reminds me of the time my girlfriend actually broke up with me in 7th grade. I’ll never forget that fateful day when she said she was movin’ on, LOL. I, on the other hand, decided to dish out my own level of petty, when I then told her I wanted that $3.95 Valentine’s Day card back that I’d bought her a few months prior to her crushin’ my young heart. Thankfully for my sake, I was a kid at that time. But my question is: What’s Michael Dobson’s excuse?!! Just sayin.’

Clearly, the brotha is either scorned, bitter, hurt, outraged, or a combination of all aforementioned emotions, regarding their 15 month marriage.

Jill and Michael jumped the broom in 2016. However, ever since Jill filed those divorce papers 15 months later, they’ve both thrown daggers at each other in the media and the only reason they have now gone radio silent, is because a judge put a gag order on both of them to refrain from public draggin’ of the each other.

This comes just months after Michael’s prior request- to have Jill cover his $6,500 legal bill- was denied by a Tennessee judge. In February 2018, it was reported, by Bossip, that Michael earns a $58K salary, as well as profits from rental properties. However, his attorney pointed out that most of his income goes to “various bills, like debts, rent and child support,” which ultimately leaves him with $100 a month to spare. Dobson’s attorney also told the court that Jill took everything when she left him and that he also signed their pre-nup agreement “under duress,” which is what he was fighting to have reversed.

“So this gentleman has been just left out kind of out to – abandoned, stated Dobson’s lawyer. […] All he is trying to do is say ‘Can we resolve this quickly? Can we resolve it amicably? Can I just have the funds, first of all, to get into a place, and secondly, get a legal team aboard to hammer out all of the nuances here, in regards to the storage facility, the car and the assets that are still in the house?”

However, Jill Scott’s lawyer, Rose Palermo, had a totally different side of the story, stating that Jill didn’t kick Michael out and that she also gave him a monetary parting gift:

“She did not throw him out with nothing,” Palermo reportedly said. “She gave him $20,000 when he left. And during the – during the course of the marriage, she deposited funds into an account for his – for his benefit.”

And the saga continues. Y’all think Jill is gonna give back that “Purple Rain album though?
