Family provision

Prest v Prest [2014] EWHC 3430 (Fam), [2014] All ER (D) 277 (Oct)

The Family Division ruled that the husband should make payments to his wife, including maintenance payments. The wife brought a judgment summons against him, submitting that he had failed to make the payments as required. The Family Division held that, the wife’s case was made out, and a sentence of four weeks’ imprisonment would be imposed, suspended for three months on condition that the husband paid the sum of £360,200 within that period.
