The court held that the applicant's order nisi effectively vested her with administration responsibilities and that the court may, under s42(2)(e) Proceeds of Crime Act 1991, authorize payment from restrained assets of bona fide estate administration expenses and certain personal legal costs; accordingly specified invoices and reimbursements were to be paid from the restrained estate with allocated amounts treated as estate expenses and limited amounts debited to the applicant, while the request to reserve funds for anticipated future fees was declined but leave to apply was reserved.
