Application by an intervener in financial remedy proceedings for disclosure of material and information which is currently subject to ‘without prejudice’ privilege. The intervener, Q, is a corporate entity which provides litigation funding to parties involved in family and probate proceedings. It has lent funds to LS, the applicant wife in these financial remedy proceedings. Her debt to Q with accrued interest currently stands at almost pounds 1 million. For these purposes the precise figure matters not although it represents a significant debt in the context of the financial remedy case which was agreed to be informed by an assessment of the wife’s needs as opposed to a full sharing claim.
