​DN v HN [2014] EWHC 3435 (Fam), [2015] All ER (D) 250 (Jun)

The proceedings concerned an application by a wife for a mandatory interlocutory injunction to require a husband to pay £8.49m plus interest and fees required to complete the purchase of a property. The husband resisted the application on the basis that the wife’s application was an attempt by her to enforce one element of a financial remedy agreement made in the course of financial remedy proceedings. The Family Division held that the element was a separate and distinct element and was therefore enforceable.
