Skinner & Alfonso-Skinner

The case of *Skinner & Alfonso-Skinner* involved an application by the husband for various orders, including an application for divorce and financial orders, which the wife sought to have stayed or dismissed. The matter came before Murphy J.

The primary legal issues before the court were whether the husband's application for divorce and his applications for financial orders should be permanently stayed, and whether other applications made by the husband should be dismissed. The court was also required to consider the wife's applications for financial orders and make directions for the future conduct of the proceedings.

Murphy J ordered that the husband's application for divorce and his applications for financial orders be permanently stayed. The court also dismissed the husband's other applications. The applications for financial orders made by both the husband and the wife were adjourned to a Registrar for further directions, with both parties required to file and serve minutes of directions sought. The court also made orders regarding the making of written submissions on costs.
