A look at recent updates in financial remedies

Parklane Plowden barristers Giorgia Sessi and Farzana Tai talk through a range of recent cases of financial remedies and the updates worth being aware of. 

As financial remedy cases are reported fairly frequently, the pair discuss a number of topics which have been of interest in the recent weeks. 

This includes Standish v Standish, which was a landmark ruling from the Supreme Court as it was the first judgment in almost 20 years to consider the concept of sharing and matrimonialisation. 

Giorgia and Farzana also explore the changes to practice direction 27A, and knowing the requirements of e-bundles. This includes points such as the bundles being searchable, subject to optical character resolution and electronically optimised, as well as who is responsible for the bundle. 

Conduct as a factor in financial remedy cases is also discussed, such as what happens in instances where conduct is a central issue and how the determination of fairness can be measured based on the circumstances presented.
