Belding and Belding (No 2)

In *Belding and Belding (No 2)*, Wilson J of the Family Court of Australia considered a dispute between the parties concerning the timing for the sale of a property. The primary issue before the court was the method and timeframe for the sale of the D Town property.

The court was required to determine the appropriate mechanism and deadline for the sale of the D Town property, specifically whether it should be sold by private treaty or public auction, and by what date. Additionally, the court considered applications relating to the mortgage debt and the removal of caveats.

Wilson J ordered that the D Town property must be sold by private treaty by 26 February 2021. If a contract for sale was not entered into by that date, the property was to be sold by public auction by 31 March 2021, with the reserve price to be fixed by the auctioneer. The court declined to make orders regarding the meeting of the mortgage debt and the removal of any particular caveat.
