MARSHMAN & MARSHMAN

In the matter of *Marshman & Marshman*, Judge Altobelli of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia considered a dispute between the parties. The precise nature of the dispute is not detailed in the provided text, but the court's reasons for judgment indicate it involved matters requiring the court's determination and subsequent orders.

The central legal issue before the court was to determine the appropriate orders to be made in light of the parties' circumstances, as reflected in the reasons for judgment. This involved the court's power to make binding orders that would implement its findings and resolve the matters in dispute between the parties.

Judge Altobelli's reasoning, as evidenced by the orders made, focused on facilitating a final resolution. The court directed the parties to collaborate and submit an agreed Minute of Order within 21 days, demonstrating a preference for consent and mutual agreement. Should agreement prove impossible, the court provided a mechanism for each party to submit their own proposed Minute of Order within 28 days, allowing the court to make a final determination based on these submissions.
