Tearle and Tearle

In the matter of *Tearle and Tearle*, heard before Judge Phipps, the dispute concerned the division of property between the parties following their separation. The primary assets in contention were the proceeds from the sale of a property located at Property W, Victoria, and a property situated at Property S, Victoria.

The court was required to determine how the net proceeds of the sale of Property W should be divided between the husband and wife. Additionally, the court needed to decide the respective entitlements of each party to Property S, and to clarify the extent of each party's interest in any other property, including superannuation, held by the other.

Judge Phipps ordered that the funds held in trust by [omitted] Lawyers, representing the proceeds of the sale of Property W, be disbursed with $102,200 paid to the husband and the remaining balance to the wife. The court further declared that the wife was solely entitled to all right, title, interest, and possession of the property located at Property S, Victoria, to the exclusion of the husband. In all other respects, each party was declared to have no interest in any property, including superannuation, held by the other.
