Final chapter in brother feud that sparked one of A Current Affair's wildest confrontations

A man who attacked an A Current Affair reporter and crew in 2015 has fronted the Supreme Court over an eight-year property dispute after he served his own brother with an eviction notice from the house he'd called home for 25 years.

The bond between the two siblings was shattered after their mother died and Richard Sckaff gave his brother George Sckaff an order to leave.

There has been bad blood between the brothers over the property ever since.

"I still find it hard that ... the same guy that I grew up with, would send me a letter … to evict me from my house with my family," George previously told A Current Affair.

Before the death of their mother Souad, George lived two doors down from her in Sydney's Dulwich Hill with his wife and two children, and Richard lived next door to Souad.

Richard's name was on the title deed for his brother's house but George claimed their parents bought it for him.

"They bought a house for Richard and they paid it off for him. Then they bought a house for me and they paid it off for me," George said in 2015.

When A Current Affair reporter Dan Nolan asked Richard questions about the ownership issue, he denied any claims that George was left the house by their parents or that he had paid for the property.

"Mum never bought you a house," Richard yelled at George at the time.

"It's not his house, it was never his house, he never bought the house."

He also accused A Current Affair of being an "accessory to murder" while he came out swinging with a cricket bat.

As A Current Affair called police to help deal with the fiery confrontation, another attack on an A Current Affair cameraman then sparked punches from George.

Police arrived and arrested Richard, who faced court six months later.

He pleaded guilty to a charge of common assault and two counts of malicious damage.

George also pleaded guilty to one count of common assault and both brothers were placed on good behaviour bonds.

Those matters were dealt with eight years ago but the issue of who owns the house is still yet to be resolved.

A Supreme Court judge will now determine exactly who the house belongs to.

On the first day of proceedings, Richard remained tight-lipped.

Although Richard didn't have any cricket bats with him as he left court, one of his supporters made an effort to aggressively block A Current Affair's cameras.

George also remained quiet about the case with the home - now valued at $2.2 million - at stake.

The judge was told neither party had documents to definitively prove who paid for the house 35 years ago, leaving it up to him to infer what had happened, with dozens of witnesses to be called.

The most crucial witness would have been their beloved mother Souad, who died a year before the family battle exploded.

The trial, which started yesterday, is set down for a week.
