Tully v Child Support Registrar

The applicant, Tully, appealed a decision of the Child Support Registrar to the Federal Circuit Court of Australia, presided over by Judge Cassidy. The core of the dispute concerned the Registrar's decision regarding child support payments.

The court was required to determine whether the Registrar's decision was correct and whether the amended notice of appeal filed by the applicant should be upheld. A secondary issue arose concerning indemnity costs.

Judge Cassidy dismissed the applicant's amended notice of appeal. The court's reasoning and the specific legal principles applied in reaching this decision are not detailed in the provided text. However, the orders indicate that the applicant was ordered to pay the first respondent's costs, with further directions given for submissions regarding an indemnity costs application. The matter was ultimately adjourned for judgment on the indemnity costs application.
