Sally Nightingale is fighting to see her former husband jailed as she claimed she had been deliberately mislead, after accusing him of doctoring important documents with Tipp-Ex.
The details are being argued in the Family Division of the High Court in London.
Mr Nightingale had previously agreed to give his wife a quarter (worth approximately £1.5 million) of his holding in a Dublin computer systems firm. The amount became significantly reduced - a meagre £75, as he claimed the sale had been ‘very hard work’ and he had only received £330.
Patric Chamberlain QC who is representing Mrs Nightingale, highlighted that despite being ordered to do so Mr Nightingale had not produced all of the relevant documents. Adding that ‘it became clear that he had doctored documents with Tipp-Ex and covered up photocopying in order to conceal the truth’.
The case is set to return to the High Court at a later date and I will be interested to see the outcome to this.
I think we can all learn that creatively using Tipp-Ex on important documents is certainly not right nor a clever thing to to do!
