Perpetual Corporate Trust Limited v Kosseris

The case involved Perpetual Corporate Trust Limited as the plaintiff and Kosseris as the defendant. The dispute centred on the possession of a property, with the plaintiff seeking an order for possession and judgment in their favour. The matter was heard in the Supreme Court of New South Wales. The plaintiff applied for leave to issue a writ of possession against the defendant following the entry of a judgment in their favour.

The legal issues before the court included whether the orders sought by the plaintiff were appropriate given the circumstances and whether there were any grounds to oppose the application for leave to issue the writ of possession. The court considered the nature of the relief sought and the fact that the orders were not opposed by the defendant. The court also assessed the appropriateness of the relief sought in light of the judgment already entered in the plaintiff's favour.

The court determined that the orders sought by the plaintiff were appropriate and did not find any reason to oppose the application for leave to issue the writ of possession. The court noted that the plaintiff had already been awarded judgment, and the issuance of the writ of possession was a necessary step to enforce that judgment. The court granted the plaintiff's application for leave to issue the writ of possession, as well as the other orders sought. The court found that the relief was appropriate and necessary to enforce the prior judgment in favour of the plaintiff.

The final orders included granting the plaintiff leave to issue a writ of possession against the defendant, along with any other orders that the plaintiff had sought. The court emphasised that the defendant had not opposed the orders and that the relief sought was appropriate given the circumstances. The court's decision effectively enforced the prior judgment in favour of the plaintiff by enabling them to take possession of the property in question.
