CaseChat Overview and Summary
In *Bundon and Bundon*, O'Reilly J of the Family Court of Australia considered an application for review of an order made by a Registrar. The husband sought an extension of time to file his application for review, and the court was asked to determine whether to grant this extension and, if so, to consider the substantive orders previously made by the Registrar.
The primary legal issues before the court were whether to extend the time for the husband to seek a review of the Registrar's order and, upon granting that extension, to determine the appropriate property and parenting orders for the parties. The court was also required to ensure that the final orders complied with the disclosure requirements of sections 65DA(2) and 62B of the *Family Law Act 1975* (Cth).
O'Reilly J extended the time for the husband to file his application for review and, by consent of the parties, set aside the Registrar's order. The court then made new orders by consent regarding the division of property pursuant to section 79 of the *Family Law Act 1975* (Cth), and parenting orders, all in accordance with the provisions detailed in Annexure A. The court further ordered that a minute of orders signed by the parties be placed on the court file and that a Fact Sheet detailing obligations, consequences of contravention, and available assistance be attached to the orders, as required by sections 65DA(2) and 62B.
