A man involved in a court battle with his ex-wife is seeking a trial by combat with Japanese swords to settle the feud.
David Ostrom, 40, revealed he would grant his ex-wife Bridgette Ostrom, 38, a stand-in-fighter or a choice of an attorney to fight him.
Arguing in court documents battling had never been plainly banned nor restricted in the United States, David from Paola, Kansas pointed out to the Lowa District Court in Shelby County that the concept had been used as 1818 in a British Court.
Speaking to Des Moines Register, Ostrom’s inspiration for the battle came from a 2016 case in which the New York Supreme Court Justice Philip Minardo agreed battling had not been eradicated.

Hudson pointed out that a duel might end in one or both parties dying, which he revealed would be disproportionate to the custody as well as to property tax issues. He then asked the court to order Ostrom for a Psychological treatment.
