Nihill and Milne (Child support)

The applicant, Nihill, sought to register certain child support maintenance liabilities and arrears for collection. The respondent, Milne, objected to this application. The matter came before J Thomson M of the [Court Name].

The central legal issue before the court was whether the application for the collection of the maintenance liability and associated arrears should be accepted, notwithstanding the respondent's objections.

J Thomson M affirmed the decision to accept the application for collection and arrears. The court applied the principles of the Child Support (Registration and Collection) Act 1988, finding that the requirements for registration and collection were met. The court was satisfied that the application was valid and that the maintenance liability and arrears were properly established for collection.
