CaseChat Overview and Summary

In the matter of *Daler & Ehan*, heard before Faulks DCJ, the dispute concerned the validity of the marriage between Mr Daler and Ms Ehan, which was solemnised in August 2012. The court was required to determine whether the marriage was void.

The central legal issue before the court was the application of section 51 of the *Family Law Act 1975* (Cth) to the circumstances of the marriage. This section provides the grounds upon which a marriage may be declared void.

Faulks DCJ found that the marriage was void and accordingly pronounced a decree of nullity. The court ordered that each party bear their own costs and removed the matter from the pending cases list.
