The appellant appealed a trial judgment concerning spousal support, child support, and equalization of net family property.
The appellant achieved partial success on appeal by increasing spousal and child support and eliminating a termination date for spousal support imposed by the trial judge.
However, the appellant was unsuccessful in overturning the trial judge's conclusions regarding equalization of net family property, which was a matter of substantial financial significance.
The Court of Appeal varied the trial judge's costs award from $10,000 to $7,000 in favour of the respondent and ordered each party to bear their own costs of the appeal.
