Dickens and Dickens (No. 2)

In *Dickens and Dickens (No. 2)*, Watts J of the Family Court of Australia considered applications made by the father concerning parenting arrangements for the parties' children. The specific nature of the dispute, beyond the father's applications, is not detailed in the provided text.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether to dismiss the father's applications filed on 29 October 2015, 30 March 2016, and 9 March 2016. The court was required to determine the appropriate course of action regarding these applications, which were brought at the father's request.

Watts J ordered the dismissal of all three of the father's applications. The reasons for judgment were reserved, indicating that the court's detailed legal reasoning and the principles applied in reaching this outcome would be provided separately.
