R Lawyers and Sresbodan and Ors

The proceeding before Aldridge J concerned a dispute between R Lawyers and Mr Sresbodan (and others, though Mr Sresbodan is the primary focus of the orders). The core of the dispute appears to involve a claim by R Lawyers against Mr Sresbodan, with the court's orders addressing the allocation of funds related to the sale of a property.

The court was required to determine the appropriate orders concerning the naming of a respondent on the court record and the disposition of funds held in a controlled monies account, specifically the proceeds of sale of property located at N Street, Suburb K. These orders were to be made pending the final determination of the substantive proceedings between R Lawyers and Mr Sresbodan.

Aldridge J ordered that the first respondent's name on the court record be amended to ‘Mr Sresbodan’. Furthermore, the court ordered that from the husband's share of the controlled monies account holding the proceeds of sale of the N Street property, a sum of $93,786.81 is to be held by R Lawyers. This sum is to be held subject to the further order of the court and the existing orders of Watts J made on 4 April 2011, pending the final determination of the proceedings between R Lawyers and Mr Sresbodan.
