CaseChat Overview and Summary
In *Jeeves & Jeeves (No 2)*, Cronin J of the Family Court of Australia considered an application by the husband for interim orders concerning documents removed by the wife from "G Business". The dispute centred on the wife's retention of these documents.
The primary legal issue before the court was whether the wife should be ordered to return the documents she had removed from G Business on 17 October 2008. The court also had to consider the husband's broader application for interim orders filed on 5 November 2008.
Cronin J ordered the wife to forthwith return all documents removed from G Business on 17 October 2008 to the husband or his appointed agent. The husband's application for interim orders filed on 5 November 2008 was otherwise dismissed. The court also made directions regarding the transcription and distribution of its reasons for judgment, the determination of costs applications through written submissions, and certified that it was reasonable to brief counsel, including senior counsel, in the proceedings.
