The court considered a motion regarding the sale of a jointly owned home and interim spousal support following the breakdown of a 26-year common-law relationship between two retired medical doctors.
The applicant sought the sale of the home and spousal support; the respondent sought a resulting trust and a vesting order.
The court found the property was intended to be held jointly, dismissed the resulting trust claim, ordered the property to be listed for sale, and awarded interim spousal support to the applicant.
