Anderton and Halsey (Child support)

The case of *Anderton and Halsey (Child Support)* concerned a dispute between the parties regarding outstanding child support payments. The decision under review was made by the Registrar of the Child Support Agency. The applicant, Anderton, sought to have the Registrar's decision set aside and substituted.

The primary legal issue before the Court was whether there were unpaid amounts of child support for the relevant period, as determined by the Registrar. This involved an examination of the calculations and assessments made by the Registrar concerning the child support obligations of the parties.

Senior Magistrate Ellis SM reviewed the evidence and the Registrar's decision. The Court found that the Registrar had erred in determining the amount unpaid for the relevant period. Consequently, the Court set aside the Registrar's decision and substituted its own determination.
