Key legal question
Whether the defendant could offset the plaintiff's loan claim with claims arising from the liquidation of the cohabitation/ simple partnership.
Extracted holding
The defendant had no claim for reimbursement of ordinary household expenses, so that head could not be used in set-off; the lower courts' result was upheld.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that the defendant could not in any event claim reimbursement for her contributions to common household expenses, making the exact apportionment of those expenses legally irrelevant. The challenge to the partnership-liquidation reasoning therefore failed.
