Cook and Cook

In *Cook and Cook*, the Federal Circuit Court of Australia considered an application for interim orders. The specific nature of the dispute between the parties, beyond the application for interim relief, is not detailed in the provided text.

The primary legal issue before the Court was whether to grant the interim orders sought by the applicant. The Court was also required to determine the appropriate forum for the continuation of the proceedings.

Judge Harland dismissed the application for interim orders. The Court then exercised its power under section 39 of the *Federal Circuit Court of Australia Act 1999* (Cth) to transfer the proceedings to the Melbourne Registry of the Family Court of Australia. The Court directed that the proceedings be listed with such priority as the Family Court is able to provide.
