We’ve thankfully all but forgotten about Donald Sterling at this point, but he’s making waves again. Sterling has filed from divorce from his wife Shelly after nearly 60 years of marriage. The two have been estranged for a while as it has seemed like a strange arrangement for quite some time now.

Former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling filed for divorce from his wife of nearly 60 years 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 initially rejected by the court as incomplete, but it was corrected and resubmitted. It lists their date of separation as Aug. 1, 2012.

Sterling also filed a petition in probate court Wednesday for an accounting and distribution of assets related to the $2 billion sale of the Clippers to ex-Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, claiming he had a right to half of the community property, according to the court documents.

Attorney Pierce O’Donnell said Shelly Sterling had no comment and had not seen either court filing.
