This family has substantial wealth and the case was originally listed to last for ten days starting on 10 March 2025. For the purposes of the final hearing, I had six voluminous electronic bundles and I had read a good deal of this on my reading day on 10 March 2025 which led into the first day of the hearing proper on 11 March 2025, Tuesday of last week.
