The applicant wife brought a motion for contempt sentencing and the appointment of an investigative receiver following the respondent husband's deliberate and flagrant failure to comply with multiple financial disclosure orders in a family law proceeding.
The respondent brought a motion to adjourn the sentencing and to sell certain properties.
The court dismissed the adjournment, fined the respondent $50,000 for contempt, and appointed an investigative receiver over his personal and corporate assets to determine his true financial circumstances.
The court also ordered the sale of several properties to fund the receivership and satisfy outstanding court orders, piercing the corporate veil to do so.
