My wife has applied for Home Rights notice using the HR1 form and I received the notice a few days ago and wanted some information.
The property she applied for was never a matrimonial home. She has been living separately in a different city since 2012 whilst I purchased the property in 2014. She has never stepped foot in this property and it was never a matrimonial home. 
Can she apply for the home rights notice on the property if the property was never her matrimonial home and was never intended to be her matrimonial home? Do the land registry make any background checks before applying the charge? 
She has done this to hurt me financially, on purpose.
Can I dispute this notice directly with Land Registry without having the go through courts based on the facts that this property was never her matrimonial home? 

Thanks

Shah - it's really legal advice you need here as to what rights you both have
Our PG 20 explains how someone can apply to register such a Notice and the form and process involved.
