Stenner and Stenner (No 3)

In the matter of *Stenner and Stenner (No 3)*, Dawe J of the Family Court of Australia considered an application by the mother concerning her children, F and H. The dispute involved the mother's application seeking various orders, some of which were dismissed by the court. A specific order was made regarding the child F's involvement in the handover of child H between the parents.

The court was required to determine the merits of the mother's application filed on 12 April 2016, specifically paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Additionally, the court had to consider whether to make an order preventing child F from participating in or taking any role at the handover of child H between the parents. The question of costs associated with the application was also before the court.

Dawe J dismissed several paragraphs of the mother's application, indicating that those specific requests were not granted. The court reasoned that it was in the best interests of the child H to make an order preventing child F from participating in or taking any role at the handover of H between the parents, and made such an order until further order. The court adjourned the question of costs to the trial judge.
