Millar & Oakley

In the matter of *Millar & Oakley*, heard before Judge Burchardt, the dispute concerned arrangements for the travel of two children, born in 2012 and 2014, to the Commonwealth of Australia. The father was ordered to provide specific details regarding the arrangements for the children's travel, including the identity of the accompanying adult, proposed flight details, and information about the accompanying adult.

The court was required to determine the necessary steps to ensure the children's arrival in Australia by a specified date, and to establish their living arrangements and time spent with each parent upon their return. The court also needed to consider the notification process upon the children's arrival.

Judge Burchardt ordered that both parents take all necessary actions to facilitate the children's delivery to Australia by 30 May 2016. Upon their return, the children were to reside with the father in Victoria, and spend time with the mother as agreed or as determined by the Court. The Australian Federal Police were directed to notify the mother, the Independent Children's Lawyer, and the Court upon the children's return. The matter was adjourned for mention, with liberty to apply granted to the parties.
