CaseChat Overview and Summary

In the matter of *Sully & Sully (No 2)*, Justice Stevenson of the Federal Circuit Court of Australia considered an application by the wife concerning property settlement proceedings. The specific dispute before the court related to paragraph 3 of the wife's Application in a Case filed on 20 May 2016.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether paragraph 3 of the wife's application should be dismissed. This paragraph likely sought to introduce or pursue a particular claim or aspect of the property settlement that the husband, or the court itself, considered to be without merit or improperly before the court.

Justice Stevenson determined that paragraph 3 of the wife's application was to be dismissed. While the precise reasoning is not detailed in the provided text, the outcome indicates that the court found no basis to proceed with the claim or relief sought in that specific paragraph.

Consequently, the court ordered the dismissal of paragraph 3 of the wife’s Application in a Case filed on 20 May 2016. This order is subject to the formal entry of the court's decision into the Court’s records.
