CaseChat Overview and Summary

In the matter of *Kalant and Jordain (No 3)*, Gill J considered allegations that Ms Jordain had contravened specific orders made by Judge Tonkin on 5 October 2018. The proceedings concerned the failure to facilitate communication and time between a child, X, and the Father.

The court was required to determine whether Ms Jordain had contravened various orders, specifically Order 8(b) concerning the facilitation of telephone communication between X and the Father, and Orders 6(g), 6(j), and 6(k) relating to allowing X to spend time with the Father. These alleged contraventions occurred on multiple dates between December 2019 and February 2020.

Gill J found that Ms Jordain had contravened the specified orders on the dates listed. The court's reasoning, as evidenced by the orders made, was that Ms Jordain's actions constituted a failure to comply with the existing parenting orders. The court ordered that Ms Jordain had contravened Order 8(b) on 10 and 12 December 2019, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 11 February 2020, and Orders 6(g), 6(j), and 6(k) on 13 December 2019 and 24 January and 21 February 2020 respectively.
