Levy and Mollison

In the matter of *Levy and Mollison*, heard by Rees J, the dispute concerned parenting orders and specifically the father's application to vary existing contact arrangements. The father sought to alter the terms of contact previously ordered, which had been subject to supervision and mandatory drug testing.

The central legal issues before the court were whether the father's amended application to vary the parenting orders should be dismissed, and in the absence of agreement between the parties regarding a supervision agency, which agency should be appointed to supervise the father's contact with the child. The court was also required to consider the continuation of existing orders for hair follicle and urinalysis testing.

Rees J dismissed the father's amended application, finding that the existing orders were appropriate in the circumstances. The court determined that, failing an agreement between the parties on a suitable supervision agency, C Group would be appointed to supervise the father's contact. Furthermore, the court ordered the continuation of the existing hair follicle and urinalysis testing requirements pending further order, indicating a continued concern regarding the father's drug use and its potential impact on the child.
