Sabino and Camplin

In the matter of *Sabino and Camplin*, heard by Baumann J, the dispute concerned the parenting arrangements for a child born in 2012. The court was required to determine the future parental responsibility for major long-term issues, the child's living arrangements, and the extent of the father's contact with the child.

The court's reasoning focused on establishing orders that it considered to be in the child's best interests. This involved making significant determinations regarding parental responsibility, including education, religious and cultural upbringing, health, name, and living arrangements, all of which were vested solely in the mother. The court also ordered that the child live with the mother and have no time or communication with the father.

Furthermore, Baumann J issued injunctions under s 68B of the *Family Law Act 1975* restraining the father from approaching within 200 metres of the child, the child's residence and school, and the mother or her workplace. The court also made orders concerning the child's ability to obtain and hold an Australian passport for international travel, with possession to be held by the mother, pursuant to s 11(1)(b) of the *Australian Passports Act 2005* (Cth). The Independent Children's Lawyer was discharged, and the family report writer, the Independent Children's Lawyer, and the mother were directed to communicate the orders to the child.
