Reichstein and Reichstein

The Full Court of the Family Court of Australia considered an application by the Husband for a stay of certain orders made by the Court on 29 November 2006. The Wife sought costs associated with the Husband's application.

The primary legal issue before the Full Court was whether the Husband had established sufficient grounds to warrant a stay of the previously made orders. This involved an assessment of the merits of the Husband's intended appeal and the potential prejudice to the parties should the stay be granted or refused.

The Court dismissed the Husband's application for a stay. While the specific reasons for this dismissal are not detailed in the provided text, the outcome indicates that the Husband failed to satisfy the necessary legal threshold for granting a stay pending appeal. The Court ordered the Husband to pay the Wife's costs in the sum of $1,200 within one month.
