Asset tracing in divorces is crucial to ensure equitable distribution of marital property, preventing hidden or undisclosed assets from being unfairly retained by one party. It helps establish a clear financial picture, which is essential for determining appropriate spousal support and child support arrangements. Additionally, thorough asset tracing can protect the legal rights of both parties, promoting transparency and fairness throughout the divorce process. Learn more about why having an experienced divorce attorney is so important when considering marital assets in the article below by Jodie McGill, Founder & Managing Attorney at McGill Law, PC, LLO.

In our latest Case Law Journal, Julie McGhee Howard examines a recent HOA case that serves as a stark reminder: bad facts usually mean bad news. In the case of C & C Investments, LP v. Hummel (Colorado) 2022 Ct. App. 42, 514 P.3d 328, Ms. Hummel paid her dues without issue for 15 years but unforeseen circumstances led to missed payments and eventual foreclosure on her property. The HOA failed to properly notify Ms. Hummel of the delinquency that led to the foreclosure. Ultimately, her home was sold at a fraction of its value due to procedural errors. The Lesson? Foreclosure is typically a remedy of last resort. Proper legal guidance and exhausting all alternatives are paramount.

For whatever reason, a tenant or landlord may elect to terminate a lease agreement before the agreed date of termination. In this scenario, the notice period will depend on whether the lease expressly incorporates an early termination clause. Designed to encourage flexibility, this clause enables either party to cancel the lease by notifying the other of their intention to cancel in writing. Generally, the notice period varies between one and two months. Where the lease makes provision for early termination but does not specify a notice period, the common law applies. The party seeking to terminate the lease must provide one (calendar) month’s notice. Where the lease does not include an early termination clause, or the lease has already expired, the provisions of the Consumer Protection Act (‘the CPA’) or Rental Housing Act (‘the RHA’), may apply. Section 14 of the CPA permits the early cancellation of a lease – defined as a fixed-term agreement not exceeding 24 months – by a tenant who must give the landlord 20 business days’ notice in writing. The tenant remains liable for any payments owing to the landlord under the lease up until the date of cancellation. The landlord may impose a reasonable cancellation penalty. The CPA, however, will not apply if the lease was concluded between a landlord and a juristic entity, such as a company or trust, or where the landlord is not leasing the property in the ordinary course of business. Where a fixed-term lease has expired and the tenant continues to occupy the property with the landlord’s express or tacit consent, the agreement continues on a month-to-month basis, unless the tenant expressly agrees to its renewal. In this instance, section 5(5) of the RHA enables either party to cancel the lease by providing one month’s notice. #lawfirm #legalservices #lawfirms #associate #lawfirmlife #corporatelaw #taxlaw #southafricanlaw #legalhelp #commerciallaw #stbb #thebigsmallfirm #southafricanlawfirm #southafricanlawfirms #law #lawyer #lawyers
