Thompsett and Keen and Ors

In the matter of *Thompsett and Keen and Ors*, heard before Gill J of the Family Court of Australia, the dispute concerned proceedings involving Mr Pemberton and Ms Keen. The specific nature of the dispute is not detailed in the provided text, but the orders indicate a focus on the preparation of expert evidence and the procedural conduct of the case.

The primary legal issue before the Court was the application of section 102NA(2) of the relevant legislation to Mr Pemberton and Ms Keen. This section likely pertains to procedural matters or evidentiary rules within family law proceedings. The Court was also required to determine the future conduct of the proceedings, including the need for further expert reports and the timeline for their preparation and dissemination.

Gill J ordered that section 102NA(2) was applicable to Mr Pemberton and Ms Keen. The proceedings were adjourned for further directions, with parties granted liberty to appear by telephone, subject to advance arrangement with the Court registry. The Court anticipated being advised on the securing of funding for a further report by Dr G. The Independent Children's Lawyer was directed to circulate a proposed minute of terms of reference for Dr G's report 14 days prior to the next directions hearing and was granted liberty to issue necessary subpoenas and provide photocopied material to Dr G, provided there was no objection to access.
