British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Wilson v. Wilson, 1997 CanLII 2798 (BC CA):
Furthermore, having regard to the matters sworn to by the wife, there clearly has been a serious degree of prejudice to her of the kind referred to by the Chief Justice in Frew v. Roberts, supra. Her circumstances have deteriorated since trial. I accept that it is vital to her wellbeing that the question whether she can retain the house be settled as soon as possible.
