We are on different paths, different wavelengths, Griem said.
He stressed that the request to part ways was being made by both parties.
This is a client and an attorney, asking the court to sanction the divorce, to sanction the severance of the attorney-client relationship, Griem said.
Griem said Bashara is already planning on meeting with two new potential attorneys Thursday and Friday.

Bashara came to Griem's defense.
"In the last seven months since my wife's murder, Mr. Griem has spent a good portion of his time dealing with police leaks, police misconduct, prosecutorial misconduct and a number of things that have affected my ability to be treated fairly and to get a fair trial," he said.
Bashara also said he cares about Griem's reputation and doesn't want to make the situation worse.
"I don't want to fire him in open court," Bashara said.
