4.  The applicant was born in 1957 and lives in Hajdúsámson. 5.  On 2 May 1989 the applicant filed for divorce. She also requested the division of the matrimonial property. 6.  After having pronounced the parties’ divorce in a partial decision, having held several hearings and obtained the opinions of experts, on 9 November 1994 the Debrecen District Court adopted a decision on the property. This was reversed by the Hajdú-Bihar County Regional Court on 20 June 1996. On 24 June 1997 the Supreme Court’s review bench quashed this decision and remitted the case to the second-instance court. 7.  In the resumed second-instance proceedings, the Regional Court held a hearing and quashed the District Court’s decision on 27 October 2000. 8.  In the resumed first-instance proceedings, on 5 June 2001 the District Court adopted a new decision concerning the property. This was reversed by the Regional Court on 23 November 2001. 9.  On 10 November 2004 a three-judge panel of the Supreme Court’s review bench examined the respondent’s petition for review on the merits. It held that the taking of evidence in the case had been comprehensive and without a fault and that the applicant’s petition did not disclose a breach of the relevant law. It therefore upheld the Regional Court’s judgment.
