CaseChat Overview and Summary
In the matter of *Selwood & Selwood*, Dawe J of the Federal Circuit Court of Australia considered an application by the wife concerning an order made on 18 July 2014. The specific dispute related to the application of paragraph 23(d)(i) of that earlier order, and the wife had filed an Application in a Case on 1 June 2015.
The primary legal issue before the court was whether to continue the stay on paragraph 23(d)(i) of the 2014 order and whether to dismiss the wife's subsequent application. The court was required to determine the appropriate course of action regarding the wife's application and the associated costs.
Dawe J discharged the stay on paragraph 23(d)(i) of the 18 July 2014 order. Consequently, the wife's Application in a Case filed on 1 June 2015 was dismissed and removed from the active pending cases list. The court further ordered that Withnalls Lawyers pay the husband's costs of and incidental to the dismissed application, fixing these costs at $500.00, to be paid within twenty-one days.
