CaseChat Overview and Summary
In the matter of *Mitty and Mitty*, heard before Justice Rose, the husband sought a review of certain orders, along with applications in a case and for contravention, which were filed in late 2008 and early 2009. The wife was the respondent in these proceedings.
The central legal issue before the court was whether the husband's applications for review and contravention had sufficient merit to proceed. The court was required to determine if the grounds raised by the husband warranted further consideration or if the applications should be dismissed.
Justice Rose dismissed the husband's Application for Review, along with his Application in a Case and Application Contravention. The court ordered the husband to pay the wife's costs of the proceedings in the sum of $1540.00, payable by a specified date. Liberty was granted to apply to set aside, suspend, or vary the orders made, subject to seven days' written notice. The wife's solicitor was directed to serve sealed copies of the orders on the husband by registered post and to file an affidavit of compliance within seven days of service.
