S'pore man, 90, fails to get maintenance from ex-wife, 89: Judge says his S$2.4 million share enough for rest of his life
The judge noted that both parties are in "the twilight of their lives".
A 90-year-old man from Singapore, who sought spousal maintenance from his 89-year-old ex-wife, has been denied his claim by a family court. The judge stated that both individuals, nearing the end of their lives, would receive substantial sums from the division of their matrimonial assets. The ex-wife, aged 89, claimed she contributed entirely to the purchase of their matrimonial home; however, the man disputed this, arguing they each contributed equally.
Consequently, he sought an equal division of all matrimonial assets. The judge noted that neither party's statement was backed by documentary evidence.
