South African Court Denies Husbands Request to Seize Wifes Marital Assets in Divorce
A South African court rejected a husbands plea to forfeit his wifes share of their marital assets in their divorce. The couple, married for nine years, had an antenuptial contract that put them out of community of property with an accrual system. However, the wife claimed a valid customary marriage, which would mean community property. The husband admitted to the customary marriage during the trial. The couple cohabited for two years before marriage, sharing expenses and contributing to their home. Despite the brief marriage, the court ordered a straight fifty-fifty division of the joint estate, granting the wife half of the husbands government pension interest.
