Joliffe and Joliffe (No 2)

In *Joliffe and Joliffe (No 2)*, the Family Court of Australia considered an application for costs following earlier proceedings between the Husband and Wife.

The primary legal issue before the Court was the quantum of costs to be awarded to the Wife and the method of their payment.

Macmillan J ordered that the Husband pay the Wife’s costs fixed at $9723.00. These costs were to be discharged either from the Husband’s property settlement or by 4:00 pm on 12 February 2021, whichever event occurred first. The form of this order was contingent upon its formal entry into the Court’s records.
