TUPPAHIGE & LEATON

The parties to this proceeding were Tuppahige and Leaton, with the dispute concerning parenting orders. The matter came before Berman J in the Family Court of Australia.

The central legal issue before the Court was the operative parenting provisions governing the parties' arrangements for their children. Specifically, the Court was required to determine whether the orders made on 4 December 2014 should remain in effect or if the previously made orders of 28 August 2013 should be reinstated as the operative parenting provisions.

Berman J discharged the order of 4 December 2014. The Court reasoned that this discharge meant the orders made on 28 August 2013 would now constitute the operative parenting provisions governing the parties' arrangements for their children.

The final orders of the Court were that the order of 4 December 2014 be discharged, with the orders of 28 August 2013 now representing the operative parenting provisions.
