The respondent wife brought a motion for partial summary judgment to dismiss the applicant husband's spousal support claim.
The husband brought a cross-motion to compel the wife to answer undertakings and provide financial disclosure regarding her income and excluded business assets.
The court dismissed the wife's motion for partial summary judgment, finding that bifurcating the spousal support claim from the complex property division issues would increase costs, cause delay, and risk inconsistent findings.
The court granted the husband's cross-motion, ordering the wife to provide the requested financial disclosure as it was relevant to determining her means and the value of her assets.
