    FCMC2164/2009

    Leave to appeal was refused because the husband failed to show any arguable ground with reasonable prospects of success: the trial judge’s factual findings (including intentional non-disclosure and timing of negotiations) were supported by evidence and not plainly wrong; the husband’s submissions were re‑runs or new points not raised at trial and insufficient to overturn the broad‑brush equal sharing applied under MPPO given the parties’ contributions and long marriage; consequently there is no arguable appeal and no basis to grant a stay; costs awarded to the wife.
