Skipper and Skipper (No 2)

In *Skipper and Skipper (No 2)*, Gill J of the Federal Circuit Court of Australia considered an application by the Husband for interim injunctive relief against the Wife. The dispute concerned the operation of a business located at a property in Suburb D, which was apparently a point of contention between the parties.

The primary legal issues before the Court were whether to grant interim orders restraining the Wife from attending the business premises and from contacting employees, customers, or contractors of the business. The Court was required to assess whether the threshold for granting such interlocutory relief, typically involving a serious question to be tried and the balance of convenience, had been met.

Gill J granted the interim orders sought by the Husband. The reasoning for this decision, though not fully elaborated in the provided text, indicates that the Court found sufficient grounds to impose these restrictions on the Wife pending further determination. The orders specifically restrained the Wife from attending the business premises and from contacting any existing employee, customer, or contractor of the business.
