Question juridique clé
Whether the parties began living separately on 1 June 2018 or 21 August 2018
Solution extraite
The finding of separation as of 1 June 2018 stood; the husband failed to show any grounds to change it.
Motifs extraits
The wife's original filing already alleged expulsion from the marital home in early June, and the husband had not expressly contradicted this. The parties had also jointly requested the 1 June 2018 date. In marital protection proceedings there is no right to a formal finding of the separation date.
