Fitzgerald and Fitzgerald (No. 2)

In *Fitzgerald and Fitzgerald (No. 2)*, Young J considered an application by the husband concerning the care of the parties' children. The dispute arose in the context of ongoing family law proceedings, with the husband seeking orders regarding the children's time with him and the wife seeking to respond to the husband's application.

The court was required to determine the interim arrangements for the children, specifically how their time would be spent between the parents and the conditions under which the wife could communicate with them. The court also needed to establish a timetable for the wife to file her response and outline the specific orders she sought, including matters relating to the children's return to South Australia and their education.

Young J ordered that certain previous orders be suspended and that the children spend continuous time with the husband until a further hearing. The wife was permitted to telephone the children daily for a limited duration. The court also directed the wife to file and serve her response and further affidavits by a specified date, detailing the orders she sought. The husband's costs of the day were reserved, and it was certified that the matter reasonably required the attendance of counsel for the husband.
