Possibly our country's biggest ever divorce case has begun in court today
22 June 2020
Sophie Biggs is battling for a share of an estimated 59 million dollars from her husband, Stephen Biggs.
The Court of Appeal had earlier ruled Stephen Biggs must pay his wife 700-thousand dollars immediately, after she sought funds to fight her corner.
But as the hearing got under way in Auckland, it's been revealed that payment has yet to be made.
Sophie Biggs is seeking half the couple's relationship property... and a share of Stephen's wealth.
He argues that because he was wealthy when the relationship began, there shouldn't be equal sharing of property.
