E v L [2021] EWFC 60

13 July 2026. Trowell J. Final hearing to determine the extent to which one party's receipt of restricted stock units and carried interest post-separation should be considered matrimonial property and subject to sharing.

13 January 2026. Sir Jonathan Cohen. Final hearing in financial remedies proceedings in which W held the majority of the parties’ wealth as a result of tax planning and distributions from H, whose wealth derived almost entirely from outside the marriage.

20 February 2026. Garrido J. Final hearing in financial remedies proceedings, considering matrimonialisation and whether there should be a departure from equality due to the shares’ original non-matrimonial character.

[2026] 3 FRJ 208. There were legitimate objections to a costs system in which parties could face substantial consequences for failing to predict with sufficient accuracy the outcome of a highly discretionary financial remedy exercise. But it does not follow that Calderbank itself was the problem.
