CaseChat Overview and Summary

In *Martin and Martin*, heard by Young J, the dispute concerned outstanding interest payable under consent orders made on 6 October 2011, and a related application to vary those orders. The wife sought payment of the outstanding interest, and the parties also sought to amend the name of a company mentioned in the original consent orders.

The court was required to determine whether the husband had complied with the original consent orders regarding the payment of interest, and to consider an application to vary those orders under section 79A of the *Family Law Act 1975* (Cth) to correct a company name.

Young J ordered the husband to pay the outstanding interest within twenty-one days. The court also ordered, by consent, that paragraph 6 of the original consent orders be varied to amend the name of the company from "[N] Pty Ltd" to "[N D] Pty Ltd". The husband was further ordered to pay the wife's costs of the hearing, fixed at $3,000, also payable within twenty-one days. A further hearing was adjourned, with provisions for the matter to be removed from the list if the payments were made prior to that date.
