Hughes and Beddoe

In the Supreme Court of South Australia, Justice Cronin considered an application filed on 20 June 2013, which was dismissed. The court also dealt with an application for contempt filed by the applicant on 20 October 2012.

The primary legal issue before the court was the determination of the contempt application. The court was required to consider the evidence and arguments presented by both parties in relation to this application.

Justice Cronin adjourned the contempt application to the Judicial Duty List for further consideration. Directions were given for the filing and service of affidavits by both the applicant and the respondent, with specific deadlines set for 24 July 2013 and 6 August 2013 respectively. No further material was to be filed in respect of the contempt application except as ordered. There were no orders for costs made.
