The Court of Appeal allowed the appeal because the Family Court judge failed to give sufficient weight to the prior mediation/consent agreement and did not properly consider that the Respondents cessation of employment was a personal choice that did not justify variation where he remained able to afford the agreed maintenance; Clause D(g) did not oblige the Petitioner to fund child maintenance from the lump sum, and therefore the variation was set aside and the application for variation dismissed.
