MERRICK & YARDLEY

In the matter of *Merrick & Yardley*, heard before Cronin J, the dispute concerned applications relating to property and parenting orders. The specific application for contravention filed on 26 June 2012 was dismissed by the court.

The court was required to determine the outcome of the contravention application and to manage the ongoing property and parenting proceedings. This involved setting future dates for the filing of amended applications and responses, as well as vacating a previously scheduled case assessment conference.

Cronin J ordered the dismissal of the contravention application and vacated the case assessment conference. The court then adjourned all outstanding applications to 3 December 2012. Directions were given for the husband to file and serve an amended application for final property orders and any proposed alterations to existing parenting orders by 17 August 2012. The wife was subsequently required to file and serve her response to the property orders and any proposed alterations to parenting orders by 10 September 2012.
