Sarah Palin has head to court to file her official response to estranged husband Todd’s divorce.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Sarah filed her answer to the divorce petition on September 20.
Sarah then filed a counterclaim against Todd Palin, meaning she does not agree with him on all issues in the divorce.
The entire court record has been sealed by Sarah and Todd, who jointly agreed to keep the case from the public.

Sarah’s court filing may put to rest any hopes of reconciliation between the two.
Earlier this month, Sarah Palin’s longtime husband filed for divorce in Anchorage, Alaska, following 30 years of marriage.
Todd filed the divorce using only their initials. The day the petition was filed was also his 55th birthday. He is seeking joint custody of the couple’s 11-year-old son Trig.
Their other kids; including Bristol, Willow, Piper and Track, are all adults.

According to the Anchorage Daily News, who first reported the split, Todd said the split was due to, "incompatibility of temperament between the parties such that they find it impossible to live together as husband and wife.”

Todd hired attorney Kimberlee Colbo to represent him in the case. The lawyer is the same who repped Dakota Meyer in his divorce from Bristol Palin.
Bristol and Dakota, who have two children together, wed in 2016 and divorced two years later, and their split was showcased on MTV's "Teen Mom OG."
Sarah has not yet to comment on the divorce. She did hire a powerhouse Alaska attorney to fight Todd in the divorce.
