Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Fisher v. Fisher, 2008 ONCA 11 (CanLII):

Based on the standard of review of a support order set out by L'Heureux-Dubé J. in Hickey v. Hickey, 1999 CanLII 691 (SCC), [1999] 2 S.C.R. 518, [1999] S.C.J. No. 9, at paras. 10-11, I am mindful that the discretionary decision of the trial judge, who in any event is very experienced, is entitled to considerable deference and should not be interfered with absent an error in principle, a significant misapprehension of the evidence or unless the award is clearly wrong. Findings of fact (a) Full-time employment
