What is the difference between reapportionment of the family assets as described above and an award of permanent spousal support based on both compensatory and non-compensation grounds?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from J.E.H. v. P.L.H., 2013 BCSC 752 (CanLII):
I do not consider that reapportionment of the family assets as described above and an award of permanent spousal support based on both compensatory and non-compensatory grounds amounts to “double recovery” or “double dipping”. This is not a case that falls into the “potential pitfall” of double recovery: see Toth v. Toth at para. 59.
