Berrell and Berrell (No. 2)

In *Berrell and Berrell (No. 2)*, Kent J of the Family Court of Australia considered an application by the Husband for permission to tender documents and present evidence of their content. The Wife objected to the tender of these documents.

The central legal issue before the court was whether the Husband should be granted leave to adduce certain documentary evidence, notwithstanding the Wife's objections. This required the court to consider the admissibility of the proposed evidence in the context of family law proceedings.

Kent J dismissed the Husband's application, except in relation to documents to which the Wife no longer objected. The court's reasoning, though not detailed in the provided text, led to the conclusion that the majority of the tendered documents and evidence were not admissible. The outcome was that the Husband was denied permission to present the disputed evidence.
