George and Chisholm

In the matter of *George and Chisholm*, heard by Judge Dunkley, the dispute concerned the living arrangements and recovery of a child, [X], born in 2014. The applicant, Ms George, identified as the maternal grandmother, sought orders regarding the child's residence and recovery.

The court was required to determine the appropriate orders for the child's living arrangements and to issue a recovery order for the child. This involved considering the welfare of the child and the powers available under the *Family Law Act 1975*.

Judge Dunkley ordered that, pending further order, the child [X] shall live with the applicant, Ms George, the maternal grandmother. Pursuant to section 67Q of the *Family Law Act 1975*, a recovery order was issued, authorising and directing law enforcement officers to find and recover the child and return her to the care of Ms George. The case was listed for further directions, and Ms George was directed to notify the court within 72 hours of the recovery order's execution to facilitate an early relisting.
