The respondent brought a motion for the release of the net proceeds of sale of two jointly owned properties.
The applicant opposed the full release, seeking to have a portion held in trust to secure her equalization claim, and brought a cross-motion for the partition and sale of a third property.
The court ordered a partial release of the proceeds, holding $778,000 in trust to secure the applicant's equalization claim, finding she had established a strong claim and a risk of dissipation.
The court also granted the cross-motion for the partition and sale of the third property, finding no compelling reason to delay the sale until trial.
