CaseChat Overview and Summary

In *Icke and Icke*, Dawe J considered an application concerning the time a child would spend with the father. The dispute centred on arrangements for the child's contact with the father, including the location and timing of handovers, and the listing of the matter for trial.

The court was required to determine the specific arrangements for the child to spend time with the father, including the commencement date and the duration of that time. Further, the court needed to establish the procedure for the handover of the child, including alternative arrangements should the primary location be unavailable. Finally, the court was tasked with directing the preparation of the matter for trial.

Dawe J ordered that the child spend time with the father on alternate weekends from Saturday 9:00 am to Sunday 5:00 pm, commencing on 27 September 2008, thereby suspending previous orders. Handover arrangements were to take place at the H Children’s Contact Service, with specific alternative provisions for handover at the S Police Station if the contact service was unavailable, subject to notification requirements. The court also directed the Docket Registrar to prepare the matter for trial as soon as possible, noting that the father's criminal charges might necessitate further consideration of the trial listing.
