CaseChat Overview and Summary
In *Cunningham and Riley (No.2)*, the applicant and respondent sought orders from the court concerning their property settlement. The court was tasked with determining the division of assets between the parties.
The central legal issue before the court was the appropriate distribution of the parties' financial resources, including superannuation entitlements, and the declaration of sole entitlement to other assets.
Judge Altobelli ordered the respondent to pay the applicant the sum of $67,695 within 60 days. In relation to all other assets, the parties were declared solely entitled to those registered in their name, legally owned by them, or to which they were otherwise beneficially entitled, including superannuation. The court noted that a third party had advised it would abide by any orders made concerning the property settlement.
