Churchill and Wileman (No.3)

In *Churchill and Wileman (No.3)*, heard by Judge Terry, the father sought leave to issue subpoenas to a range of entities, including autism support organisations, government transport authorities, and financial institutions. The mother opposed the father's application.

The central legal issue before the court was whether the father should be granted leave to issue the proposed subpoenas. This required the court to consider the relevance and necessity of the documents sought by the father in the context of the proceedings.

Judge Terry refused the father's application for leave to issue the subpoenas. The court determined that the documents sought were not relevant to the proceedings before it, nor were they likely to be of assistance in resolving the matters in dispute. Consequently, the court declined to grant leave for their issuance. The matter was subsequently adjourned for submissions regarding an application for costs.
