The applicant sought a vesting order to remove the respondent from the title of her home.
The applicant had contributed the vast majority of the purchase price, while the respondent was placed on title solely to secure a mortgage.
The respondent subsequently assaulted the applicant, stole her car, and fled the jurisdiction, contributing almost nothing to the property's maintenance or mortgage.
The court found the respondent was unjustly enriched and impressed a constructive trust on the property for its full value in favour of the applicant, granting the vesting order and sole possession.
