De Young and Krebig

This matter concerned orders made by Rees J regarding the parental responsibility and time spent with a child, L Krebig De Young, born in 2013. The dispute involved the parents' arrangements for the child's care and contact.

The court was required to determine the terms of orders concerning equal shared parental responsibility, the child's living arrangements, and the specific periods and conditions under which the father would spend time with the child. This included provisions for contact in Melbourne and Sydney, as well as arrangements for communication, information sharing, and significant life events such as the child's baptism.

Rees J ordered that the parents have equal shared parental responsibility for the child, with the child to live with the mother. The father's time with the child was detailed with specific commencement and end times, varying according to the child's age, and included provisions for travel between Melbourne and Sydney. Further orders addressed communication methods, information sharing regarding the child's education and health, and the child's baptism in the Greek Orthodox Church.
