In what circumstances will the court allow the petitioner to stay in the family home until the children leave high school?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Vanstone v. Vanstone, 2003 SKQB 54 (CanLII):

In addition, to not recognize David’s equity in the family home would, in effect, unfairly penalize him for his medical condition. As I indicated in the paragraph above, I agree with the approach taken in Anderson v. Anderson, supra, where, to some extent, the same argument was advanced. In that decision the learned trial judge made a determination that was both sensible and equitable and in the end allowed the petitioner to remain in the family home until the children had all graduated from high school. I believe that approach taken in that decision would work well in these circumstances.
