Nelson and Nelson

In *Nelson and Nelson*, Dessau J presided over proceedings involving an applicant husband and a respondent wife. The nature of the dispute is not detailed in the provided text, but it culminated in the making of final consent orders.

The primary legal issue before the court was the determination and formalisation of these consent orders. The court was required to ensure that the agreed terms between the parties were properly recorded and made binding.

Dessau J's reasoning focused on the finalisation of the agreement reached by the parties. The court made orders in accordance with minutes presented, indicating that these represented the final consent of both parties. The court directed that these orders be kept on the Court file, and the solicitor for the applicant husband was tasked with preparing the formal orders within seven days. Following the making of these orders, the Independent Children's Lawyer and counsellor were excused from further attendance.
