CaseChat Overview and Summary

In *Buzalek and Buzalek (No 2)*, Strickland J of the Family Court of Australia considered orders relating to children's time with their husband, the provision of medical reports, and the husband's liberty to contact treating practitioners. The dispute also encompassed an application for indemnity costs.

The court was required to determine the terms of the children's time with the husband on specific dates, the extent of the wife's obligation to provide the husband with reports concerning the children's medical conditions, and whether the husband should be at liberty to contact the children's treating medical practitioners. Furthermore, the court had to consider the wife's application for indemnity costs, taking into account the husband's financial means.

The orders made by consent addressed the children's time with the husband on 25 December 2009, suspending their time on 26 December 2009. The court ordered that the wife provide the husband with any reports received regarding the children's allergies and other medical conditions, and that she advise the husband of the names and contact details of their treating medical practitioners. The husband was granted liberty to contact these practitioners to obtain information about the children's medical condition and treatment.

By consent, the husband was ordered to pay $1,000.00 towards the wife's costs within 28 days. The husband's application in a case and the wife's response were dismissed. The orders also included a fact sheet detailing the obligations created by the orders and the consequences of contravention, pursuant to sections 62B and 65DA(2) of the *Family Law Act 1975*.
