Fazarri and Hsiao (No. 2)

In *Fazarri and Hsiao (No. 2)*, Cronin J of the Family Court of Australia considered the financial and property settlement dispute between a husband and wife. The proceedings involved the division of assets and the transfer of interests in real property.

The court was required to determine the appropriate orders for the division of property, including the disposition of a jointly owned property and the payment of a sum of money between the parties. The court also had to consider the mechanism for enforcing compliance with its orders, particularly in relation to the transfer of property interests.

Cronin J ordered that the husband pay $100,000 to the wife by 1 August 2018. The court further ordered the immediate severance of the joint tenancy in the parties' real property at G Street, Suburb H, with the wife to sign a transfer of her interest in that property to the husband by the same date. The wife was also required to provide spare keys to the husband's vehicle and the property within 14 days. To ensure compliance, the registrar of the Family Court was authorised to execute necessary documents in the wife's name if she failed to comply with her obligations, upon affidavit evidence from the husband's solicitor. Each party was to retain all other property in their possession, with the wife's sole remaining interest in the G Street property being the $100,000 payment. The husband's application filed on 18 May 2018 was otherwise dismissed.
