Greyson and Greyson (No 2)

In *Greyson and Greyson (No 2)*, Bennett J of the Family Court of Australia considered the appropriate penalties for contraventions of court orders concerning a child, O. The proceedings involved the mother, Ms Greyson, and the father, concerning arrangements for O's time with each parent.

The court was required to determine the penalties for the contraventions of court orders that had been previously found proved. Specifically, the court had to decide on the appropriate sanctions for the mother's contraventions, which included orders relating to the child's time with the father.

Bennett J ordered that Ms Greyson enter into a two-year good behaviour bond for the first contravention. For the subsequent contraventions, the court ordered compensatory time to be spent by the child O with the father. These compensatory periods were scheduled across specific weekends in August, October, and November 2009, and an extension of time during the September 2009 school holidays. Additionally, compensatory time was ordered for the 2009/2010 summer school vacation, extending the child's time with the father by four days.
