Jacobsen and Mohr

In the matter of *Jacobsen and Mohr*, Judge Kelly of the Family Court of Australia made orders concerning the residence and contact arrangements for a child, X. The dispute involved the mother and father regarding the child's living situation and the father's access.

The court was required to determine the primary residence of the child, X, and to establish a framework for supervised contact between X and the father. Additionally, the court needed to address the parties' conduct towards each other, particularly in the presence of the child and on social media, and to implement measures to ensure the father's sobriety during contact periods.

Judge Kelly ordered that X return to live in the metropolitan area of Adelaide by a specified date. Supervised contact was to occur fortnightly at a designated children's contact centre, with both parties required to register and attend assessments for suitability. The orders also imposed significant restrictions on the parties, prohibiting abuse or denigration of the other parent in X's presence and on social media. The father was further ordered to abstain from illegal substances for 24 hours prior to and during contact, and to undergo random drug testing under specific conditions. The court also directed the parties to attend an appointment with a family consultant to assist in resolving outstanding issues.
