That's what I was getting at. Does he still owe her?

In the quote from the story, I don't know if "adjourning" means everyone went for lunch and a chat or if it means outright dismissal of her claim.

I heard of another guy who spent everything they had BEFORE separation/divorce on sporting equipment, etc, things she would never want/need, hoping to escape that way with things she'd just let him keep without valuing them. Not sure how that worked out for him.

Just an interesting legal riddle.
