NIKAS & ANTHIS (No.2)

In *Nikas & Anthis (No.2)*, the Family Court of Australia considered an application for costs made by the Husband in proceedings between the parties.

The central legal issue before the Court was whether the Husband should be awarded costs in relation to the proceedings.

Judge Bender dismissed the Husband's application for costs. The reasons for this decision are not detailed in the provided text, but the outcome indicates that the Court found no grounds to depart from the usual rule that parties bear their own costs in family law proceedings, or that the specific circumstances did not warrant an order for costs in favour of the Husband.
