This matter concerned an application by the wife and husband regarding their four children and the division of their property. The court was required to make orders concerning the children's living arrangements, time spent with each parent, and the division of various assets and liabilities.

The court was tasked with determining the most appropriate parenting orders for the children, considering the principle of equal shared parental responsibility and specific living arrangements for each child. Additionally, the court had to adjudicate on the division of the parties' property, including real estate, vehicles, personal chattels, and superannuation entitlements, and to allocate responsibility for various debts.

The court ordered the discharge of all extant orders concerning the children and established equal shared parental responsibility. Specific living arrangements were made, with one child to live with the husband and the others with the wife, and detailed provisions for time spent with the non-resident parent. The court also made extensive orders for the division of property, including the payment of a lump sum by the husband to the wife, the transfer of specific assets and liabilities between the parties, and the splitting of superannuation entitlements. Each party was made solely responsible for liabilities attaching to assets retained by them and for liabilities incurred since separation. The court also imposed restraints on each parent regarding denigrating the other and providing court documents to the children, and made specific orders concerning the husband's superannuation to protect the wife's entitlement.
