Summary
A wife appealed against the District Judge's valuation of dissipated shares in the husband's company that were transferred to his son at an undervalue during the marriage. The court allowed the appeal in part, finding the notional value to be added back to the matrimonial pool should be $251,874.70 rather than $101,874.70, as the husband failed to prove receipt of the purported $150,000 consideration.
