Illgen and Yike (No 3)

In the matter of *Illgen and Yike (No 3)*, Gill J of the Federal Circuit Court of Australia considered an application concerning the time a father would spend with his child, B Yike. The dispute centred on the specific arrangements for the child's contact with the father.

The primary legal issue before the court was to determine the precise schedule and conditions under which the father would spend time with the child. This involved establishing the frequency, duration, and location of these periods of contact.

Gill J ordered that the father shall spend time with the child on alternate weekends, commencing on Saturday, 17 December 2016, from 9 am until Sunday at 2 pm. The court further stipulated that handover arrangements would occur at either McDonald’s R Town or McDonald’s O Town, with the mother having the discretion to choose the venue. In the absence of the mother's specific election, the default handover location would be McDonald’s R Town, unless 24 hours' notice was provided by the mother to alter the venue.
