Kappas and Kappas (No.5)

In *Kappas and Kappas (No.5)*, Judge Harland of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia considered an application by the husband concerning property settlement. The wife sought orders for the division of assets.

The primary legal issue before the court was the appropriate division of the parties' property. Specifically, the court had to determine the quantum of the financial resources to be transferred from the husband to the wife to achieve a just and equitable outcome.

Judge Harland ordered that the husband pay the wife the sum of $195,000 on or before 29 April 2019. The court also adjourned further applications relating to property adjustment under section 79A of the *Family Law Act 1975* to a later date, and reserved the question of costs.
