Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Conforti v. Conforti, 2021 ONSC 1767 (CanLII):

In Barbini v. Edwards, 2014 ONSC 6762, the husband owned a business. He had not provided sufficient financial information. Interim orders for support were in place. Justice Emery made a preservation order, holding at para. 91 that it was “warranted given the complexity of the issues yet to be determined by the court in this application, questions of credibility on those issues and the ever present risk that where one party owns a business, assets could be dissipated to defeat the rights of another without it.”
