Smoothe and Enmore (No 4)

The Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia, presided over by Forrest J, considered an application by the mother in proceedings between Smoothe and Enmore (No 4). The specific nature of the dispute between the parties is not detailed in the provided text, beyond the mother's application.

The sole legal issue before the court was whether the provisions of the *Evidence Act 1995* (Cth) should apply to the proceedings, as sought by the mother through an oral application made pursuant to section 69ZT(3) of the relevant legislation.

Forrest J dismissed the mother's oral application. The reasoning for this dismissal is not elaborated upon in the provided text, but the outcome is clear.
