RE: Ndlovu v Ndlovu
The affidavit of service was filed on January 18, 2026 by Kurt Russel who served the Statement
of Claim on January 14, 2026 personally. Our client’s photo was Exhibit ‘B’ to the affidavit of
service. The Plaintiff’s personal address is still 897 Barlow Lane, Edmonton AB T7L 9L0.
Since the service of the Statement of Claim for Divorce and Division of Property, the parties’
have been in active negotiations. Our client was not noted in default, pending negotiations, and
we did not file any response documents.
Per the parties’ Separation Agreement executed on April 6th, 2026 we are now ready to proceed
with drafting the request for divorce and desk divorce documents. We will proceed with getting a
desk divorce for our client that reflects the content of the Separation Agreement. We want
everything drafted and ready for filing shortly. No adultery or cruelty grounds.
This is not a Joint Divorce. The Plaintiff will be executing consent for any necessary documents
and is represented by counsel, Sunny Tran of Metcalfe Law. The address for the Plaintiff’s
lawyer is 9787 – suite 400, 11th Ave SE Edmonton AB T1L 0K9.
