Franklin and Ennis (No.2)

In *Franklin and Ennis (No.2)*, Judge Harper of the Federal Court of Australia considered the dispute between the applicant and the respondent concerning the final orders to be made in the proceeding.

The primary legal issue before the Court was how to resolve the outstanding matters of proposed orders and costs, particularly in circumstances where the parties might not reach an agreement.

Judge Harper directed the parties to submit an agreed minute of proposed orders within 14 days, with the possibility of these orders being made in chambers. The Court also stipulated that these orders must address the question of costs. If the parties could not agree on the proposed orders, the applicant was to arrange for the matter to be relisted for further consideration by the Court, with notice to the respondent. Any applications regarding costs would be determined by written submissions, unless an oral hearing was requested.
