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.
