Collett J in Wittich v Twaddle (1979) Civil Jurisdiction No. 117). Ground CJ applied a conversion rate of two dollars to the pound. This rate was not based solely on the actual exchange rate of the two currencies or an average over a period of time; but took into account what was perceived then as "the marked difference" in the cost of living between Bermuda and the UK. As this rule is routinely followed and was not disputed, I do not intend to depart from it. I would only comment that it seems to me to be a rule of practice rather than of law and might be ripe for review. The award for general damages comes to $13,000.

HG (Bermuda) Ltd [2018] SC (Bda) 26 Com (19 March 2018) where the Learned Judge, when considering the construction of company bye-laws, set out the principles and in turn referred to the earlier Bermuda Judgment of Mr. Justice Hellman in Kingate Global Fund Limited (In Liquidation) v. Kingate Management Ltd. [2015] Bda LR 86 and the references which he made in that Judgment in respect of the construction of a contract. Mr. Justice Hellman quoted Lord Neuberger in the case of Arnold v. Britton and others [2015] UKSC 36. When giving the Judgment of the Supreme Court, Lord Neuberger, at paragraph 19, sought to emphasise seven factors to take into account in the interpretation of contractual provisions. I set out the first four which are relevant here.

Wade-Miller J dated 12 March 2014, in which she dealt with applications on behalf of the Appellant, the petitioner in the original matrimonial proceedings, to whom I shall refer as "the Wife", and the Respondent, the respondent in those proceedings, to whom I shall refer as "the Husband". As appears from the heading of this judgment, the Wife appeared in person, both before the judge and on this appeal, and the Husband was represented by counsel. There were originally two applications before the judge; on 7 March 2013 the Husband had made an application for lump sum provision, while on 18 March 2013 the Wife had made application for relief in a number of respects, although for the purposes of this appeal they can be divided between her application for lump sum provision and transfer of property, on the one hand, and maintenance for the children, on the other. In relation to this latter, the emphasis was primarily on the children's school fees, and the proportions in which these should be divided between the parties. The Wife had filed two affidavits, and the Husband one, and both parties gave oral evidence.

That application was dismissed on 20 June 2013, but this dismissal was in turn reversed by the Court of Appeals of the State of Sao Paulo, on 23 August 2013. The effect of that reversal was to remit the request for annulment to the lower court, and this process has yet to be completed. The judge commented (paragraph 26) that he had no information as to when the lower court was to hear the Annulment Application, and that he had no doubt that the unsuccessful party would wish to pursue an appeal.

His submissions were correctly rejected and have not been repeated before us.
