‘Although conduct is a relevant factor under the checklist within section 25(2) of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973, it is rarely raised in financial remedy proceedings. For a conduct argument to succeed, it must be ‘inequitable to disregard it’, in accordance with section 25(2)(g) and ‘obvious and gross’ as per the House of Lords’ decision in Miller v Miller; McFarlane v McFarlane [2006] UKHL 245.’
