Dalton and Dalton

In the matter of *Dalton and Dalton*, Austin J of the Supreme Court of New South Wales considered an application filed on 10 December 2015, which was subsequently dismissed. The wife had also filed a response on 7 March 2016, seeking interim orders.

The primary legal issue before the court was the determination of the wife's application for interim orders. The court was required to consider the merits of these interim applications in the context of the broader proceedings.

Austin J dismissed the initial application. By consent, the court then listed the wife's application for interim orders for a hearing on 29 April 2016. No order was made as to costs in relation to the dismissed application. The proceedings were noted to remain listed before the Registrar for further procedural directions on 29 March 2016.
