Crawford and Crawford

In the matter of *Crawford and Crawford*, heard by Dessau J, the wife had filed an Application in a Case on 20 March 2008. The husband sought an extension of time to discharge a mortgage, pursuant to an earlier order made by Watt J on 17 December 2007.

The primary legal issue before Dessau J was whether to grant the husband's oral application to extend the time for the discharge of the mortgage.

Dessau J dismissed the husband's application to extend the time for the discharge of the mortgage. The court ordered that the wife's application be adjourned to the Judicial Duty List on 5 May 2008, with the wife's costs of the day reserved. The husband was granted leave to file his affidavit sworn 17 April 2008. A transcript of the reasons for judgment was to be placed on the court file.
