CaseChat Overview and Summary

In the matter of *Pegg and Pegg*, heard before Judge Altobelli, the dispute concerned parenting orders for two children, X and Y. The specific nature of the dispute leading to the final orders is not detailed, but the court was required to make determinations regarding the children's living arrangements, parental responsibility, and the extent of contact between the children and each parent.

The court was tasked with determining the most appropriate parenting arrangements for the children, considering the welfare and best interests of X and Y. This involved deciding on sole or shared parental responsibility, where the children would live, and the nature and extent of any time or communication the Father would have with the children. Furthermore, the court considered whether to impose restrictions on the Father's conduct towards the Mother and children, pursuant to section 68B of the *Family Law Act 1975*.

Judge Altobelli discharged all previous parenting orders. The court ordered that the Mother have sole parental responsibility for the children, and that the children live with the Mother. Crucially, the Father was ordered to spend no time with or communicate with the children. In addition, the Father was restrained, under section 68B of the *Family Law Act 1975*, from attempting to contact the Mother or children, approaching within 100 metres of their residence, schools, extra-curricular activity locations, or the Mother's place of employment.
