Corbett and Oakley

In the matter of Corbett and Oakley, heard before Judge Howard, the dispute concerned the final orders to be made following the court's reasons for judgment. The parties were required to engage in a process to settle the precise wording of these orders.

The court was tasked with determining the procedure for finalising the orders, particularly in circumstances where the parties might not reach an agreement on their wording. This involved setting timelines for the parties to propose and agree upon the terms of the final orders.

Judge Howard ordered that each party was to provide a draft of the proposed final order to the other by 4:00 pm on 27 July 2015. The parties were then directed to attempt to reach an agreed position on the wording of the final order, reflecting the court's reasons for judgment, and to submit this agreed order to the court by 4:00 pm on 3 August 2015. If an agreement could not be reached within this timeframe, the matter would be listed for a mention, requiring personal attendance of each party and their legal representative, on a date to be fixed by the court.
