Soldo and Soldo

In *Soldo and Soldo*, the husband and wife were parties to family law proceedings. The dispute concerned property settlement and costs. The matter came before Macmillan J.

The court was required to determine the terms of a property settlement, the disposition of costs arising from an application for interim orders, and the future conduct of the proceedings.

By consent, the husband was ordered to pay the wife $500,000 as a partial property settlement. The court also ordered a process for the determination of costs related to the wife's application for interim orders filed on 27 February 2017, requiring written submissions from both parties. Extant applications for final orders and certain interim orders were adjourned for a future hearing, while other extant applications for interim orders, excluding costs, were dismissed. The requirement for a conciliation conference was dispensed with.
