Trusts in Financial Remedy Proceedings
When studying for my A level in English literature I never quite worked out who Myrtle Brown was, nor whether Laurel was her sister or Ivy Neversere a friend of theirs. In History I studied the period when Milton was writing but I never found their names mentioned in the history books either.

This was an appeal of a final order in financial remedy proceedings heard by Mr Justice Cusworth. The appeal argued that HHJ Furness KC at first instance had pitched W’s needs at too high a level, applied needs to capital but sharing to pensions, and included interest on a lump sum while H was also paying maintenance. Appeal allowed on issue of pensions and interest only.
