Read the full judgment text of FAMV14/2013 on BabelCite. This Court of Final Appeal judgment was delivered on 27 September 2013 before Mr Justice Chan PJ, Mr Justice Tang PJ and Mr Justice Bokhary NPJ.
1. We are not prepared to grant the husband leave to appeal on the “point of law” basis. The matter raised by the proposed questions are fact specific and we do not think that the points put forward really arise. Mr Coleman SC for the husband submits that the effect of the Court of Appeal’s judgment is that there cannot be unilateral assets in the case of a long marriage. We do not believe that was the decision of the Court of Appeal.
Legal issues: Leave to appeal on point of law · Leave to appeal on ownership of shares in NUIGL
Outcome: Leave to appeal refused on the point of law basis; leave to appeal granted on the issue of ownership of shares in NUIGL on the 'or otherwise' basis.
