KNOX & KNOX

In the matter of *KNOX & KNOX*, heard before Judge Jones, the husband sought leave to provide certain affidavits, excluding their annexures, to the Director of Public Prosecutions and the County Court of Victoria. The precise nature of the underlying dispute between the parties, Mr and Ms Knox, is not detailed in the provided text, but the application for leave to disclose these affidavits indicates a context involving potential legal proceedings or investigations.

The central legal issue before the court was whether to grant the husband permission to disclose specific affidavits sworn by both himself and Ms Knox. This involved considering the implications of such disclosure, particularly the exclusion of annexures, and the potential impact on any ongoing or future proceedings. The court was required to determine if the conditions for granting such leave were met.

Judge Jones granted the husband leave to provide the specified affidavits to the Director of Public Prosecutions and the County Court of Victoria, with the express condition that the annexures to these affidavits were to be excluded from the disclosure. The court also ordered that costs in relation to this application be reserved, meaning a decision on who bears the costs will be made at a later stage.
