Filmer & Filmer (No 2)

In *Filmer & Filmer (No 2)*, Dawe J of the Family Court of Australia considered an application by the wife concerning property settlement. The specific nature of the dispute revolved around the wife's claim for a property adjustment, the details of which were the subject of the application before the court.

The central legal issue before Dawe J was whether the wife had established grounds for a property adjustment in her favour. This required the court to assess the evidence presented and determine if the circumstances warranted an alteration of the existing property interests between the parties.

Dawe J dismissed the wife's application. While the reasons for this dismissal are not detailed in the provided text, the outcome indicates that the wife failed to satisfy the court that a property adjustment was justified. The court reserved the costs of the application for both parties, meaning a decision on who bears the legal expenses will be made at a later stage.
