MR PILLAI

Applicant

And

MS DOSHI

Respondent

REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

1. That upon the application of the husband alone the divorce application was filed 23 December 2010. By agreement service is dispensed with unconditionally. 

2. I find the jurisdiction is the parties’ domicile in and residence within Australia.  The marriage is proved.  The marriage certificate will be copied and a true copy thereof retained upon the court file.  The grounds of marriage are irretrievable breakdown.  I am satisfied orally as to the current circumstances of the two children noting that children and parenting orders are to be made and this divorce is granted at the conclusion of a five day defended hearing.  The divorce will become effective one month from this day.

3. I therefore declare the parties divorced.

I certify that the preceding Three (3) paragraphs are a true copy of the reasons for judgment of the Honourable Justice Cronin delivered on 5 January 2011.
