In *Milton and Penfold and Anor (No.2)*, heard by Judge Neville, the dispute concerned applications relating to children's matters. The specific nature of the dispute, beyond the applications made by the parties, is not detailed in the provided text.
The court was required to determine several applications, including whether to grant leave to admit a medico-legal report, whether to permit the re-opening of the Mother's application, and the status of other outstanding applications. The court also had to consider the continuation of existing court orders and the necessity for mediation regarding the Mother's time with a child.

The Mother's application to re-open the matter was dismissed, as were all other outstanding applications. The court ordered that the existing Court Orders dated 21 December 2016 remain in force. Furthermore, the parties were directed to attend mediation to formalise the Mother's regular time with the child, with the existing orders to remain in force if no agreement was reached. No order was made as to costs.
