APPEAL BOOK ENDORSEMENT
1This is an appeal from judgment rendered at an undefended trial.
2The appellant abandoned his appeal of the part of the judgment regarding the real estate in the joint names of the parties. The only remaining issue is whether there was sufficient evidence in the record to support the amount of the deduction of the value of a personal injury action from the respondent’s net family property. In our view there was. The respondent adequately discharged her onus under s. 4(3) of the Family Law Act.
3The appeal is dismissed. Costs fixed in the amount of $5,000 inclusive of disbursements and GST.
