Summary: This is an appeal by Matty Faye against a High Court Judgment of January 2013 in her case against Dawda Jawara on the sharing of matrimonial property. The appellant argued that part of the judgment which gave the respondent equal share of the matrimonial house was faulty, as the applicant claimed full rights over the said property. The appeal was successful and the sum of fifty thousand Dalasis was to be given by the respondent to the appellant.
