Lau and Feizhou and Anor

In the matter of *Lau and Feizhou and Anor*, Aldridge J of the Federal Circuit Court of Australia considered an application by the maternal grandmother for the children to travel to China. The proceedings also involved applications concerning the inspection of subpoenaed material.

The primary legal issue before the Court was whether to grant the maternal grandmother's application for the children to travel to China. Ancillary to this, the Court was required to determine whether to grant leave for the legal representatives of the parties to inspect subpoenaed material, including DVD material, produced by Business J.

Aldridge J dismissed the maternal grandmother's application for the children to travel to China. The Court granted leave for the legal representatives to inspect the subpoena material produced by Business J, including the DVD material. The remaining outstanding applications were stood over for further consideration.
