The applicant sought an order for interim exclusive possession of the matrimonial home, which she owned prior to the marriage.
The respondent, who resided in the home with his two children from a previous relationship, opposed the motion and brought a late cross-motion for spousal support.
The court granted the applicant exclusive possession, finding the home environment to be psychologically abusive and noting the respondent had the financial means to secure alternate accommodation.
The respondent's motion for spousal support was adjourned due to late service, and he was ordered to provide outstanding financial disclosure.
