Koustous & Koustous (No 2)

In *Koustous & Koustous (No 2)*, Cronin J of the Family Court of Australia considered applications made by the parties in ongoing proceedings. The specific nature of the dispute between the husband and wife is not detailed in the provided text, beyond the fact that it concerns interim applications and costs.

The primary legal issues before the court were the determination of the final orders to be made in relation to the interim proceedings, the allocation of costs associated with those proceedings, and the disposition of outstanding interim applications.

Cronin J made orders in accordance with minutes of proposed orders agreed between the parties. The court ordered that the husband pay the wife's costs of $4500 relating to the interim proceedings, with the payment of these costs stayed until the final determination of the substantive proceedings. All other outstanding interim applications were dismissed.
