Davis and Hadlow

In the matter of *Davis and Hadlow*, heard before Berman J, the proceedings concerned an application for contravention brought against the father. The precise nature of the contravention and the underlying dispute between the parties are not detailed in the provided text, but the matter proceeded to a stage where sentencing of the father was to be considered.

The central legal issue before the court was the determination of the appropriate sentence for the father following a finding of contravention. This required the court to consider the circumstances of the contravention and any relevant factors that would inform the sentencing decision.

Berman J ordered that the Application for Contravention be set down for the sentencing of the father on 7 May 2019 at 9:15 am. This indicates that the court had likely already made a finding of contravention and was now proceeding to the sentencing phase of the proceedings.
