Pavlek and Spice

In the matter of *Pavlek and Spice*, heard by Cleary J, the dispute concerned an application made on 18 November 2016. The specific nature of the dispute between the parties, identified as the applicant (wife) and the respondent, is not detailed in the provided text, beyond the fact that it led to an application for costs.

The central legal issue before the court was the determination of costs in relation to the application filed on 18 November 2016. The court was required to decide whether costs should be awarded and, if so, to whom and on what basis.

Cleary J ordered that the Respondent pay to the wife the costs of the Application of 18 November 2016, with those costs to be either agreed between the parties or assessed by the court. This outcome indicates that the wife was successful in her application, at least to the extent that she was awarded her costs.
