ASGAR & KASSAB

In the matter of *Asgar & Kassab*, heard before Judge Obradovic, the court dealt with applications concerning both parenting and property matters. The parenting orders sought by the applicant were not opposed by the respondent. The property dispute involved the assessment of contributions and considerations of justice and equity.

The primary legal issues before the court were to determine the appropriate parenting orders regarding the children X, Y, and Z, and to make final orders concerning the division of the parties' property, specifically addressing the family home and a monetary sum. The court was also required to consider the mechanism for enforcing compliance with its orders.

Judge Obradovic made orders granting the applicant sole parental responsibility for the children, with the children to live with the applicant. The children were to spend time with the respondent as agreed. In relation to property, the respondent was ordered to transfer his interest in the property at A Street, Suburb B, Victoria, to the applicant, bearing all associated costs. Additionally, the respondent was to pay the applicant $8,820 within 28 days. Each party was declared the sole and beneficial owner of all property in their possession or control, including bank accounts, motor vehicles, and superannuation interests, subject to the specific orders made. The court also empowered the Registrar to execute documents on behalf of a party who refused or neglected to comply with the orders, pursuant to section 106A of the *Family Law Act 1975*. All outstanding issues were removed from the list of cases awaiting finalisation.
