The author, known under her maiden name Jillian Lauren, asked for joint legal and physical custody of the children and is looking for spousal support. She also blocked the option for Scott to receive spousal support, the outlet reported.

No date of separation or prenup was made available.

Shriner was hospitalized for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound sustained during an armed standoff with police officers in Los Angeles on April 9.

Officers with the Los Angeles Police Department were searching the area around her home in the Eagle Rock neighborhood for three suspects who fled from them after a hit-and-run.

Shriner allegedly stepped out of her home, armed with a gun and fired at the officers.

She failed to comply with several orders to drop the firearm and was shot in the shoulder before she fled back inside the residence.

She returned and surrendered to the police moments later. She was initially charged with attempted murder, but later faced charges of willful discharge of a firearm in a grossly negligent manner and assault with a semiautomatic firearm

Shriner posted a $1 million bond and has since pleaded not guilty to two felony gun charges.

In September, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled Shriner “eligible and suitable” for a two-year mental health diversion program, which allows defendants with a qualifying mental health or substance abuse disorder to undergo community-based treatment instead of serving time in prison.

If she completes all conditions of the diversion, including abstaining from illicit drugs and alcohol, the court will dismiss her charges, according to the LA County District Attorney’s office.

Shriner was also ordered to continue to participate in weekly therapy sessions, undergo random drug and alcohol testing, and attend at least three Alcoholics Anonymous meetings a week.

She is also not allowed to own or possess any guns or knives while under the program.
