THR v WAT [2025] EWHC 1125 (Fam)17 March 2025
HHJ Hess navigated his way through an Xydhias puzzle. Parties informed the judge they were Xydhias-bound but then argued over (i) a £2m asset, (ii) costs, (iii) an interest provision, and (iv) security. The court’s conclusions, in a nutshell, were that if it had not been raised at the time or in the written agreement, then the court would favour the written agreement.

Child Maintenance by the Back Door? Mortgages and Schedule 1 Children Act 1989
Following the successful appeal of the arbitral award in LT v ZU [2023] EWFC 179, the decision has been reversed in the further appeal to the High Court ([2024] EWHC 778 (Fam)). LT v ZU is significant as it provides authority to permit a court to require a party to take out a mortgaged loan to provide housing pursuant to Sch 1; and pay the monthly mortgage instalments in cases where the court has no jurisdiction to make periodical payments. The father is seeking permission to appeal.
