Antony & Joyce

In the matter of *Antony & Joyce*, heard before Baumann J, the wife sought to retain the services of WGC Lawyers, including its directors and employees, to represent her in ongoing court proceedings. The husband sought an order restraining the wife from engaging WGC Lawyers for this purpose.

The central legal issue before the court was whether the wife should be restrained from continuing to be represented by WGC Lawyers in the proceedings. This required the court to consider the circumstances under which such a restraint might be granted, likely involving principles related to conflict of interest or other professional conduct rules.

Baumann J ordered that the wife be restrained from retaining WGC Lawyers, or any directors or employees of that entity, to continue to act and represent her in the proceedings pending before the Court. The precise form of this order is subject to the entry of the order in the Court’s records.
