Huffman & Gorman (No. 2)

In *Huffman & Gorman (No. 2)*, Hannam J of the Family Court of Australia considered an application by the mother to exclude certain evidence contained within the father's affidavit filed on 23 September 2014. The dispute concerned the admissibility of specific paragraphs within this affidavit.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether the evidence contained in paragraphs 25, 128 to 150, and 235 of the father's affidavit should be admitted or excluded. This required the court to assess the relevance and potential prejudice of the contested evidence in the context of the proceedings.

Hannam J dismissed the mother's application to exclude the evidence. The court found that the evidence was admissible, implying that it met the necessary legal thresholds for relevance and that any potential prejudice did not outweigh its probative value. Consequently, the court ordered that the evidence contained in the specified paragraphs of the father's affidavit be admitted.
