    On the facts and applying s.11 MPPO and the broad brush approach, the court accepted the parties would share children’s expenses equally, found the husband breached his undertaking and produced insufficient evidence to displace the wife's claims, ordered specified lump sum release and recurring monthly payments to be paid out of the court-held sale proceeds and discharged/varied the husband’s obligation to pay interim maintenance thereafter because payments will be met from the family assets held by the court.

    PROWELL INTERNATIONAL TRADING LTD v. KAN SHUE REALTY LTD AND ANOTHER

    Citation
    PROWELL INTERNATIONAL TRADING LTD v. KAN SHUE REALTY LTD AND ANOTHER
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA1088/2009

    The Defendants' alleged counterclaim/set-off was not arguable, bona fide or plausible on the evidence; the water-damage claims related to a separate transaction pursued by the actual victim against the building manager/insurer and were therefore not sufficient to defeat summary judgment; the Tenancy Agreement required rent payable in advance without deduction and the tenant's failure to insure (clause 2(k)) invoked the prevention principle; accordingly summary judgment for the Plaintiff for the specified sums was warranted.
