Is it unfair that after-acquired capital is tapped to pay the respondent continuing support?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Stringer v Stringer, 2017 BCSC 1470 (CanLII):
The appellant says that there was a division of capital by Collver J. at the original trial and that it is unfair that his after-acquired capital should now be tapped to pay the respondent continuing support. The present case does not raise the “double dipping” issue mentioned in Strang and dealt with at length in relation to pension benefits in Boston v. Boston, [2001] 2 S.C.R. 413, 2001 SCC 43… [quote from Boston omitted].
