CaseChat Overview and Summary

In *Kouper and Kouper (No 2)*, heard by Watts J, the proceedings concerned an application by the husband for a postponement of the final hearing. The wife sought orders dismissing the husband's application to postpone the hearing and also sought the dismissal of orders 1 and 2 of the application filed on 24 August 2009.

The primary legal issues before the court were whether the husband's application to postpone the final hearing should be granted, and whether orders 1 and 2 of the application filed on 24 August 2009 should be dismissed. The court also considered the husband's request for leave to photocopy certain filed documents.

Watts J dismissed the husband's application to postpone the final hearing, confirming that the matter would commence as scheduled on 7 September 2009. The court also dismissed orders 1 and 2 of the application filed on 24 August 2009. Leave was granted to the husband, his sister M Kouper, or any legal representative appointed by the husband to photocopy any application, response, affidavit, or financial statement filed in the matter. The costs of the hearing were reserved.
