The applicant spouse brought a motion seeking interim spousal support, occupation rent for the matrimonial home, and an order for the sale of the matrimonial home.
The court declined to grant interim relief, noting the matter was already scheduled for trial within two months and that the requested orders would require credibility findings and fuller financial disclosure.
The court held that issues relating to occupation rent, ownership interests, equalization, and entitlement to spousal support should be determined by the trial judge after a full evidentiary hearing.
Concerns also existed regarding incomplete financial disclosure and the respondent’s ongoing payment of household and child-related expenses.
The motion was dismissed with costs reserved to the trial judge.
