Sinatirra and Sinatirra

In the matter of *Sinatirra and Sinatirra*, heard before Stevenson J, the dispute concerned the sale of a property and the distribution of its proceeds. The orders indicate a disagreement between the parties, identified as the wife and the husband, regarding the management and division of assets, specifically real estate.

The court was required to determine the terms of the sale of the property, including the method of sale, the priority of payments from the proceeds, and the respective entitlements of the husband and wife. Additionally, the court needed to make orders concerning the preparation of the property for sale, access for inspection, and the mechanism for resolving future difficulties.

Stevenson J ordered that the parties cooperate to sell the property for the best reasonably obtainable price. The proceeds were to be applied first to sale expenses, legal costs, mortgage discharge, and outstanding rates. The remaining balance was to be divided, with 54.6% allocated to the wife and the remainder to the husband. Further orders mandated that the parties follow the real estate agent's recommendations for presenting the property and that the husband permit the wife and her guests to inspect the property twice weekly. Liberty to apply was granted on 48 hours' notice for any sale-related difficulties.
