Narkis and Narkis

In the matter of *Narkis and Narkis*, heard before Cronin J, the proceedings concerned an application by Mr Narkis. Ms Narkis was absent from the court hearing.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether Mr Narkis should be granted leave to proceed with his application on an undefended basis, given Ms Narkis's non-attendance and failure to provide a reason for her absence.

Cronin J ordered that the proceedings be adjourned to a specific date and time. Crucially, the court stipulated that if Ms Narkis failed to appear at the adjourned hearing and did not provide evidence explaining her prior absence, Mr Narkis would be granted leave to proceed with his application as if it were undefended. The court also ordered that this order be expedited and served by email.
