Celebrity Justice
Kate Walsh -- Let a Judge Decide

Kate WalshKate Walsh is drawing a line in the sand with estranged hubby Alex Young. We've just obtained legal papers in which Walsh's lawyer, disso-queen Laura Wasser, has requested a trial date in their divorce -- always a bad sign.

As we reported this AM, Young is gunning for info about the house they bought together, just before they tied the knot. The marriage lasted only 14 months, but it's gotten ugly.

By getting a trial date, the clock is ticking for Kate and Alex to either come to terms or go before a judge. We know Walsh feels as if Young is harassing her people for financial information she says he already has.

Young's lawyer says the case "is no where near ready for trial" but thinks it's gonna settle.

1. Who cares what who gets?! This is just like any other Hollyweird divorce. Lasts all of 5 minutes and then it's over.
She looks like a total beotch anyway.

Although if I had to choose on who wins...I'd pick the ex-husband. Take Kate Walsh for everything she has buddy!

3. Given Young's crap reputation in the industry, and with the accountants taking a restraining order out against him harassing their staff, I say go Kate !!

4. He seems to be harassing her.

His lawyer probably thinks he can bully her.

All lawyers think they can bully women.

Hope she sticks it to him and his slime lawyer.

7. Walsh is a beotch. Everybody in the industry knows that. It's soo obvious she is trying to paint her ex-husband as a bad guy.
"We know Walsh feels..." How you know that? Because she told you? Bwahaha.. So you admit that she is feeding all kinds of media with this trash.
Doesn't Walsh have like about three lawsuits going now against her? Pretty much for a "nice", "honest" person.

8. How the hell is she supposed to come out on top in the divorce and her lawyer is a damn disco queen?.

9. How come TMZ didn't post Alex Young's court papers like other websites have?

How come whenever there is a Laura Wasser divorce story TMZ always breaks it?

How come every time a negative story comes out about Kate Walsh Marty Singer immediately files a lawsuit and Annette Wolf goes into aggressive spin mode on her behalf?

How come Kate's 50 year old brother, Joe Walsh, who is fat and almost bald, has no job and no career, is now living with Kate Walsh because he has no where to go?

How come every time an AA story comes out about Kate Walsh, they immediately spin it that it's AL-ANON despite the fact that Kate Walsh is an admitted alcoholic?

How come Alex Young is being attacked simply for requesting basic financial information?

How come Kate Walsh fired her agent, manager and lawyer and is now being sued by one of them for not paying commissions?

How come TMZ will not report the true facts of why Alex Young got divorced to Kate Walsh after only 15 months of marriage?

And let me ask this one more time... how come TMZ did not post the court papers filed by Alex Young when they did post the court papers from Kate Walsh?

The truth is coming.

10. Any shock this ended badly?!? They were only together for something like 4 months when they got engaged. She should lose the house as punishment for being so stupid. Maybe if people took the time to get to know each other before rushing into marriage the divorce rate would actually go down!!

11. It's always sad (although never a surprise) that two people who 14 months earlier pledged their lives to one another are now on the attack.

12. S. - You happen to be one of Alex's sad little friends ! Kate has an excellent reputation in the industry which is more than can be said for Alex. And the only lawsuit against her is a response from her old agents who she has sued for fraud ! Check your facts.

13. Charlie Abbott - since when is Kate Walsh an admitted alcoholic ? Wishful thinking on your part. If you do your research you will easily discover it is Al-Anon meetings, not AA meetings that she attends, and has done for many years way before she met Alex. No surprises there.

Her brother Joe doesn't live with her. Fact. Even if he did, so what ?!

Alex Young isn't being attacked for asking for financial info - he's being slapped with a restraining order for threatening, abusive behavior !! Big difference !!

Read the sentence from his lawyer again - Young's lawyer says the case "is no where near ready for trial" but thinks it's gonna settle. OF COURSE HE'S GOING TO SETTLE - HE KNOWS OTHERWISE HE WILL LOSE. NO BRAINER !!

14. To TMZ. I'll ask this again: if you obtained the papers, why don't you post them ?
