CaseChat Overview and Summary
In *Creswell & Creswell*, the wife sought to set aside consent orders made on 29 April 2014 and also applied for spousal maintenance. The matter came before Judge Brown.
The primary legal issue before the court was whether the wife had established grounds to set aside the previously made consent orders. A secondary issue was the wife's entitlement to spousal maintenance.
Judge Brown dismissed the wife's application to set aside the consent orders. The court found that the wife had not satisfied the necessary legal threshold to vitiate the consent orders. The application for spousal maintenance was listed for further directions.
