Rigg and Stilwell (No.4)

In the matter of *Rigg and Stilwell (No.4)*, Judge Harman considered parenting orders concerning the child, X. The dispute involved the parents, Ms Stilwell and Mr Rigg, and their respective roles and responsibilities in relation to X.

The court was required to determine the specific parenting arrangements for X, including where X would live, the time X would spend with each parent, and the nature of their shared parental responsibility. The court also needed to address provisions for communication between the parents regarding X's health, education, and psychological well-being, as well as the parents' participation in a Parenting Orders Program.

Judge Harman ordered that all prior parenting orders be discharged. The court established that both parents would have parental responsibility for X, with X to live with Ms Stilwell. Specific time arrangements were detailed for X to spend with Mr Rigg during school terms and holidays, including provisions for alternate weekends, intervening weeks, and school holidays, with particular arrangements for Christmas Eve and Boxing Day. The orders also mandated that both parents ensure they are listed as parents and emergency contacts at X's school, facilitate direct communication regarding X's health and treatment decisions, and obtain consent before X attends counselling or psychological services. Furthermore, both parents were ordered to re-engage with the Parenting Orders Program.
