[2011] All ER (D) 64 (Nov)

The Supreme Court's decision in this case went against the Court of Appeal judgement which held that Mr Kernott had an equal share in the house, the Supreme Court ruled that he only held a 10% share. This decision is expected to have far reaching consequences in the area of Co-ownership.
