The applicant brought a motion for a Certificate of Pending Litigation (CPL), a preservation order, and expanded financial disclosure in a family law proceeding following a long marriage.
The applicant alleged the respondent unilaterally sold a jointly acquired rental property and transferred funds to purchase a new property in his sole name, while failing to provide adequate financial disclosure.
The court granted the CPL, finding a reasonable claim for a constructive trust, and issued a preservation order under sections 12 and 40 of the Family Law Act to prevent the dissipation of assets.
The court also ordered the respondent to provide detailed financial disclosure, noting his previous non-compliance had frustrated the progress of the case.
