CaseChat Overview and Summary
In *Lewis and Decker (No. 2)*, Cronin J of the Supreme Court of Victoria considered an application filed on 7 February 2012 and a response filed on 5 June 2012. The precise nature of the dispute between the parties, Lewis and Decker, is not detailed in the provided text, but the court was tasked with determining the fate of these two filings.
The central legal issue before the court was whether to grant or dismiss the application and the response that had been filed. The court was required to consider the merits of each filing and make a determination based on the relevant legal principles and evidence presented.
Cronin J dismissed both the application filed on 7 February 2012 and the response filed on 5 June 2012. The court further ordered that any party seeking costs arising from these dismissals must do so by written submission, to be filed and served by 23 July 2012. Any response to such a costs application was to be filed and served by 6 August 2012, with all such applications and responses to be determined in chambers.
