High Court grants a divorce decree and ancillary reliefs following a lengthy legal process initiated in 2017. The court found that the primary responsibility for the delays rested with the appellant, who benefited from residing in the unencumbered family home while the respondent incurred rental costs. The original decision by the Circuit Family Court to grant the divorce and ancillary reliefs was upheld, with the court ordering the sale of the family home and an equal division of assets and savings, while addressing rental arrears and costs associated with the proceedings.
