What is the case law on half interest in a property where a plaintiff is not entitled to one half interest?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Letford v. Letford, 2000 CanLII 22453 (ON SC):
There is no doubt in my mind that the defendant, plaintiff by counter claim should see that property be sold and that she should look to this property as a reasonable means of increasing her assets. Not only did she contribute financially to the acquisition of this property but she also did a lot of the work necessary to make it a livable home. There is no reason why she should be deprived of her one half interest any longer. I am satisfied that she fits right in the category of people contemplated by Becker v. Pettkus (supra).
