Although the wife was found guilty of single act of adultery, the court held she was not disentitled to maintenance given the husband's greater blame for breakdown; the registrar assessed the husband's realistic net income at HK$1,500 per month, deducted admitted expenses, applied the one‑third rule with the wife's potential earnings of HK$250, and awarded maintenance of HK$150 per month payable during the joint lives of the parties or until further order.
