Is there any material error, serious misapprehension of evidence or error in law?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Young v. Young, 2009 BCCA 518 (CanLII):
This court cannot disturb a reapportionment of assets absent a material error, a serious misapprehension of evidence, or an error in law: Hickey v. Hickey, 1999 CanLII 691 (SCC), [1999] 2 S.C.R. 518, at para 12. In my view, no error has been demonstrated that would permit us to overturn or vary the trial judge’s reapportionment in this case. Accordingly, I would dismiss the appeal
