Porter and Porter

In the matter of *Porter and Porter*, Justice Macmillan of the Supreme Court of Victoria was required to consider applications for final orders in a family law proceeding. The specific dispute concerned applications made by both the husband and the wife, with the court ultimately making orders in relation to the continuation and dismissal of certain aspects of these applications.

The primary legal issues before the court were the determination of which extant applications for final orders should proceed and the dismissal of specific paragraphs within the husband's and wife's filed applications. The court was also required to consider any applications for costs associated with these matters.

Justice Macmillan ordered that all extant applications for final orders be listed for mention before him on 17 February 2015. Furthermore, the court dismissed paragraphs 16 and 21 of the husband’s application filed on 19 November 2014, and the wife’s response filed on 1 December 2014, with the exception of any applications for costs.
