Sajn v Kennedy

In the matter of *Sajn v Kennedy*, Ms Sajn appealed to the court against an order made by Mr Kennedy. Mr Kennedy filed a notice of motion seeking to have Ms Sajn's appeal dismissed as incompetent.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether Ms Sajn's appeal was competent. This required the court to consider the procedural requirements for appeals and the nature of the order being appealed.

Hodgson JA determined that the appeal was indeed incompetent. Consequently, the court ordered that the appeal be dismissed. Ms Sajn was ordered to pay Mr Kennedy's costs in relation to his notice of motion. The costs of the appeal to date were to be treated as costs in a future application for leave to appeal, for which Ms Sajn was granted an extension of time to file. The court also made directions regarding the content of the appeal book. Ms Sajn's separate notice of motion was dismissed without any order as to costs.
