Scott & Munayallan (No. 2)

Ms Munayallan applied for interim injunctions and other procedural orders in family law proceedings against Mr Scott. The dispute arose from the breakdown of the parties' marriage and related to the protection of the wife's interest in matrimonial assets. The Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 1) heard the matter. The court had to decide whether to grant the wife's application for procedural orders, including the joining of additional parties and an injunction to restrain the sale or transfer of certain property. The court also had to consider the husband's failure to attend the hearing and the possible tampering with a medical certificate.

The court found that the husband had failed to attend the hearing despite being ordered to do so. Additionally, the court was concerned about the husband's health after receiving a medical certificate that was later found to have been altered. The court noted that the husband had attended a medical centre and obtained a new medical certificate that extended his unfitness to attend court until 1 October 2021. The court granted the wife's application for procedural orders and issued injunctions to restrain the sale, transfer, or other dealings in relation to certain property and to freeze bank accounts of the husband and other related entities. The court also ordered the husband to provide contact details of certain individuals and allowed the wife to issue further subpoenas for documents and attendance at the hearing. The final hearing is scheduled for 7 October 2021.
