CaseChat Overview and Summary

In the matter of *Naylor & Naylor*, Mr Naylor (the applicant) sought a review of orders made by the Senior Registrar, with Ms Naylor (the respondent) opposing the application. The proceedings were heard by Brown J in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether the Senior Registrar's previous orders should be set aside or varied upon review. A secondary issue concerned the costs of the application.

Brown J dismissed the application for review, finding no grounds to disturb the orders made by the Senior Registrar. The court's reasoning, though not detailed in the provided text, led to the conclusion that the original orders were appropriate. The application for costs was adjourned to a later date, with directions given for the filing of affidavits concerning costs.

The court ordered that the application for review be dismissed and the orders of the Senior Registrar remain undisturbed. The application for costs was adjourned to 19 May 2021, with the father granted liberty to file an affidavit on costs by 12 May 2021.
