Dynones and Dynones

In the matter of *Dynones and Dynones*, Stevenson J of the Family Court of Australia considered a dispute between a husband and wife concerning the division of property. The central issue revolved around the distribution of funds derived from the sale of the former matrimonial home.

The court was required to determine how the net proceeds of sale of the former matrimonial home should be allocated between the husband and wife. This involved assessing the respective entitlements of each party to the asset in light of their financial circumstances and contributions.

Stevenson J ordered that within 14 days, both parties were to take all necessary steps and execute all required documents to facilitate the payment of $30,000 to the wife and $15,000 to the husband from the net proceeds of the sale of the former matrimonial home.
