DANIEL v. JANIE Part I
Where former husband remarried prior to distribution of assets accumulated during prior marriage. Subsequently sued and settled with his foreign solicitors whom he claimed committed malpractice by failing to advise him that under English law, his remarriage barred his ancillary claim to assets accumulated during prior marriage and held in name of former wife. The doctrine of judicial estoppel barred him from claiming a community property interest in those assets.
