So a decision made by a judge which prevented a D, is upheld in the Court of Appeal.
In the UK, it is a fault system for D. There are several grounds, adultery, 2 years by mutual consent, 5 years unilateral and unreasonable behaviour.
A WW filed for D on the grounds of her H unreasonable behaviour. He objected (contested) and the judge said that WW hadn't proved that H was unreasonable. WW appealed, she wanted D. Her appeal was turned down, the appeal court said the original judge had made a valid judgement.
Just being miserable and day to day miserable was expected in a long M. The WW is 66 and the H is 78.
Not sure how this decision benefits anyone. Your spouse had better be really truly unreasonable not just every day. This may lead to no fault D in the UK. That is divorce on demand.
I suspect the H just didn't want to split his worldly wealth with his WW for 5 years. Make her wait! He said he had forgiven her the PA and they had several years left as H and W.
Only in England......
