Averroes and Attar

In the Family Court of Australia, Hogan J made ex parte orders in favour of Ms Averroes, the applicant, concerning her child, B. The dispute involved the recovery of the child, who was born in 2009.

The court was required to determine whether to issue a recovery order authorising and directing law enforcement officers to find and recover the child, B, and deliver him to Ms Averroes. The order also sought the power to stop and search vehicles, vessels, aircraft, and to enter and search premises where there was reasonable cause to believe the child might be found.

Hogan J granted the recovery order. The reasoning for this decision is not detailed in the provided text, but the order itself reflects the court's exercise of its power to make such directions to secure the welfare and safety of a child. The order was subsequently amended to correct the spelling of the child's name and his gender. The matter was listed for further hearing in the Brisbane Registry.
