In a property dispute case following a divorce in Fujian, the court ordered the husband to pay the wife economic compensation of 50 ten thousand yuan.

Case Summary

Plaintiff Chen (female) and defendant Li (male) registered their marriage on 2010/5/20. On 2023/10/15, they obtained a divorce by mutual agreement at the Civil Affairs Bureau and signed a Divorce Agreement, which addressed child custody and division of marital property. In 2024/3, plaintiff Chen discovered that during the marriage, defendant Li had transferred a jointly owned property to his brother at a price significantly below market value without her consent, and had also moved substantial bank deposits into his parents' names, thereby concealing and transferring marital assets. Plaintiff was unaware of these actions at the time of the divorce. She now sues in court, requesting that defendant Li pay economic compensation of 50 yuan and that the marital property be divided anew.

Key Dispute

1.Did Defendant Li transfer or conceal marital joint property during the marriage?
2.Is there a legal basis for the plaintiff's claim of economic compensation?
3.Should joint marital property be redistributed?

Case Strategy

1.Secure core evidence such as the divorce certificate, "Divorce Agreement," property transfer records, bank statements, and communication logs between both parties.
2.The defendant, Li Mou, transferred jointly owned marital real estate at a price significantly below market value without the plaintiff's consent and transferred substantial bank deposits during the marriage. These actions constitute the concealment and dissipation of joint marital property, violating provisions of the Civil Code.
3.Under the Civil Code, if one spouse conceals, transfers, sells, damages, or squashes joint marital property, or fabricates joint debts in an attempt to encroach upon the other party's share, that spouse may receive a smaller portion or no portion of the joint marital property during divorce proceedings.
4.The court should calculate the amount of joint marital property transferred or concealed by the defendant and award economic compensation of 50 ten thousand yuan, which is in accordance with legal provisions.

Processing Result

The court ruled that the defendant, Li Mou, shall pay the plaintiff, Chen Mou, economic compensation of 50 ten thousand yuan within 10 days from the effective date of this judgment. The defendant shall bear all litigation and preservation costs for this case.
