Also the lawyers getting £90k each - Big Bad Maz did well there, swooping in at the eleventh hour and getting the same amount as Anne
Interesting! I assume the RO hearing will go ahead in any event?The stipulation is … interesting. They’ve both agreed to it. The judge has to now sign off on it. It would eliminate the need for tomorrow’s hearing.
Hello and welcome!I'm not sure how I feel about this latest development at all, I'm delurking to post this, I hope there is a good reason.
Thank you @ButterTart. It looks as if Ioan has handed control of the sale to the Abuser, or at least part control. Can she delay a sale? It does seem a waste of money if they’re having to pay for two agents. I can see, sort of, why he’s agreed to this, but I can see him back in court again when she starts playing silly whatsits as she’s bound to do.The stipulation is … interesting.

They are both named mortgagors already. I'm assuming it was bought and trustee owned the bare legal title on trust for them both.I’m surprised as well. But I’m assuming he received legal advice that this would not negatively affect his share of the sale. IMO he is being VERY generous with her regarding all the terms of the sale. The only thing I can think of is that she would become equally liable for the mortgage/amount owing.
ETA: Meant to quote @welp
I wonder if it has something to do with the trust? Has to be transferred to both names to be sold or something. I am surprised too.I admittedly dont know much about this stuff but it seems very surprising that he would agree to transfer the title to both names jointly. Am I missing something obvious here and it would be otherwise not possible to sell the house? I would have thought this would be the most no-go in what Alice proposed.
Anyway, a win for Ioan, it's finally getting sold.
good point. The pre-nup must surely still apply?How does the court stop her appearing remotely and with the children (Ella) present? Surely that won’t be allowed?
Does Ioan get the rest of the money from the sale of the house? My maths might be off. Like I said earlier, I’m out my tata’s in medication for a real reason.
the stipulation does say that the court can make decisions if either party asks for an ex parte, she certainly will try to delay things but she cant do it endlesslyThank you @ButterTart.

pretty much, if Alice wasnt lying (LOL)Does Ioan get the rest of the money from the sale of the house? My maths might be off. Like I said earlier, I’m out my tata’s on medication for a real reason.
yes, but this is more of a lawyer exerciseWill there still be court proceedings for the other matters tomorrow?
I don’t know about LA but in my experience, agents take their commission from the selling price so you aren’t “paying” them out of pocket, as it were. And usually they would split the commission, so neither would get the full commission.Thank you @ButterTart.

There is no selling fee. The average commission is just under 5%. Or they could agree to a flat amount for handling the sale.Any US turds know what the selling fees would be in $ on a joint listing?
They asked for tomorrow’s hearing to be vacated (cancelled) in light of the stipulation, assuming the judge approves it.yes, but this is more of a lawyer exercise
