Sister Wives star Meri Brown is taking a significant step in her separation from Kody Brown. After years of a strained marriage Meri is now seeking legal counsel to address the ongoing dispute over Coyote Pass. This move comes as Meri and Kody navigate the complexities of dividing assets after their official split and after Janelle Brown also decided to get legal help.

For a long time Meri remained committed to her marriage with Kody. Even through difficult periods she hoped for reconciliation with the Brown family patriarch. However in January 2023 Meri officially separated from Kody and began building a new life away from the polygamous family structure. Despite moving on personally the issue of Coyote Pass a shared Property purchased by the Brown family in Arizona remains unresolved and is now pushing Meri to take firm action.

Coyote Pass Legal Battle: Meri Brown Lawyers Up For Fair Property Share Against Kody

Meri Brown Determined To Resolve Land Dispute With Kody Fairly

The Coyote Pass Property was intended to be a place where each wife could build her dream home. This four-plot land became a point of contention and a source of financial strain for the Brown family. Each wife including Meri Janelle Robyn and Kody himself is listed as an owner of different parcels. However Kody's name is on each deed creating a complex legal situation as Meri and Janelle seek to claim their fair portions after separating from him.

In a recent Sister Wives episode Meri discussed her decision to hire a lawyer with Janelle Brown. Meri expressed her resolve to ensure a fair division of the Coyote Pass asset. "There’s been a lot of confusion surrounding the way things have been done in the family the way that Kody is with me and has been with me for many many years" Meri shared in a confessional. She added "So I think that’s why I’m going to get a Lawyer to help me through this process." Meri also stated she is ready to push for resolution after years of avoiding conflict. "I felt like for quite a few years I’ve just kind of sat back and just not wanted to ruffle feathers. So I haven’t pushed the issue on many things but I will push the issue."

United Front From Meri And Janelle Brown Against Kody's Coyote Pass Plans

Meri connected with Janelle via Zoom to discuss the Coyote Pass situation. Janelle who has also separated from Kody was already seeking legal advice. When Meri mentioned hiring a Lawyer Janelle responded positively. “So you’re talking to somebody too?” Janelle asked in a surprised tone. Upon Meri's confirmation Janelle replied “Okay good.” Janelle stated she believes legal involvement will ensure a timely and just resolution. “I’m glad it just makes sure it gets done fairly and in a timely manner because I think Kody could just drag his feet if he wanted to” Janelle commented highlighting concerns about Kody potentially delaying the process.

Janelle and Meri have not always been allies. Seeing them present a united front on this financial matter is noteworthy. Janelle observed in her own confessional “I’m so so glad Meri understands it’s wise to have a lawyer because we’re not family anymore. I mean this is people now trying to dissolve a business that went bad basically.” This perspective frames Coyote Pass less as a family matter and more as a business partnership that has dissolved requiring legal mechanisms for asset division.

Kody’s reaction to Meri and Janelle's legal actions was less than supportive. He reportedly dismissed their concerns referring to them as "nagging exes". This response perhaps illustrates why Meri and Janelle feel legal representation is necessary to safeguard their interests in the Coyote Pass dispute. It remains unclear whether Kody has different plans for the land that he is not disclosing to Meri and Janelle further fueling their need for legal clarity and protection.

Will Meri And Janelle Get Their Fair Share Of Coyote Pass Property After Legal Fight?

Both Janelle and Meri contributed financially to the Coyote Pass purchase using joint family funds. Janelle's legal advisors believe this establishes a basis for equal shares in the land value. Janelle explained to Meri “There’s no protection Meri especially for you you’re on one piece of land. You would get a third. In technicality you get a third of one of those pieces and that’s not fair right?” This points to a potential unfair distribution if the land division is not handled carefully and legally. Janelle's lawyers argue that equal financial contribution should translate to equal share in the property value for all parties involved.

Meri expressed a sense of isolation within the Brown family dynamics. “I’ve always felt like our family was supposed to be a team. Right now I feel like there’s the Christine and Janelle team and then there’s the Kody and Robyn team. I don’t want to be on anybody’s team.” Her decision to hire a lawyer signals a move away from relying on family agreements and toward securing her financial interests independently.

The legal actions taken by Meri and Janelle suggest a significant shift in their approach to Kody and the Brown family finances. It remains to be seen how this legal battle over Coyote Pass will unfold and what the final outcome will be for Meri Janelle and Kody. Fans of Sister Wives are watching closely to see if Meri and Janelle will succeed in getting what they consider their rightful share of the Coyote Pass property as they navigate their post-sister wives lives.
