Rowlands and Rowlands

In *Rowlands and Rowlands*, the Family Court of Australia considered a dispute between a husband and wife concerning property settlement. The specific matter before the court involved the wife being ordered to pay the husband's costs in relation to previous hearings.

The primary legal issue before the court was the determination of the quantum of costs to be paid by the wife to the husband, following the reservation of costs on 16 August 2016 and 19 August 2016.

The court, presided over by Judge McNab, ordered the wife to pay the husband's costs in the sum of $7,500. This order reflected the court's decision on the allocation of legal expenses arising from the previously reserved matters.
