Hanley and Hanley

This matter concerned proceedings between Mr Hanley and Ms Hanley regarding the parental responsibility and time spent with their two children, [X] and [Y]. The decision was made by Judge Harman.

The court was required to determine the orders concerning parental responsibility, the time the children would spend with each parent, and provisions for communication, medical information, and school contact. Additionally, the court addressed the filing and service of evidence for an upcoming trial and the process for listing the matter for hearing.

Judge Harman ordered that prior interim orders concerning the children be discharged. Parental responsibility was to be shared by both parents, with the children spending time with Ms Hanley at all times other than when they were with Mr Hanley. Specific arrangements were detailed for Mr Hanley's time with the children, including alternate weekends and intervening weekdays during school terms, and a division of school holiday periods. The orders also stipulated communication rights, the exchange of medical and educational information, and the process for collecting the children. The court also set strict timelines for the filing and service of evidence by both parties and outlined the procedure for listing the matter for trial, including provisions for administrative vacation of a call-over date if the matter was certified as ready for hearing.
