Patricia Arquette Cuts Her Husband Loose

On the job, Patricia Arquette sees dead people. In real life, she sees divorce lawyers.
The Medium star has filed for divorce from her husband of two and a half years, Punisher hero Thomas Jane. (View the petition.)
She cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split, according to documents filed Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court.
The duo, who swapped vows May 15, 2006, have a 5-year-old daughter, Harlow Olivia Calliope. Per her petition, Arquette is requesting sole legal and physical custody of the child, with visitation privileges for Jane.
This was the second marriage for both actors. Arquette and hubby No. 1, Nicolas Cage, kept their rings on for six years before parting ways in May 2001. She also has a 19-year-old son from a previous relationship.
Jane, who also starred in The Mist and played Mickey Mantle in the HBO movie 61*, is pretty fresh from pleading no contest to a single count of driving under the influence in order to avoid more serious punishment for getting busted in March near Bakersfield, Calif. He was sentenced in September to a year's probation and ordered to pay a fine and attend alcohol-education classes.
