The husband sought various orders concerning the division of property and the distribution of proceeds from the sale of a home. The proceedings involved the husband, the wife, and an intervenor. The court was required to determine how the net proceeds of the sale of the parties' home should be distributed, considering the claims of the intervenor and the respective entitlements of the husband and wife.

The central legal issues before the court were the extent to which the intervenor had a claim over the property, and how the remaining proceeds should be divided between the husband and wife. The husband's proposed orders outlined several alternative scenarios for the distribution of funds, contingent on the court's findings regarding the intervenor's claims as pleaded in specific paragraphs of their amended points of claim. These scenarios involved different percentages of the remaining balance being allocated to the wife and the husband after the intervenor's ascertained debt was paid.

The court's reasoning and the principles applied were not fully detailed in the provided text, which focused on the husband's proposed orders. However, the structure of these orders indicates the court was considering principles of property settlement under the *Family Law Act 1975* (Cth), including the need to identify and account for all property of the parties, and to make such orders as are just and equitable. The court also had to consider the impact of any third-party claims, such as that of the intervenor, on the division of matrimonial assets. The court's ultimate decision would depend on the evidence presented regarding the intervenor's claim and the overall financial circumstances of the parties.

The court made orders for the sale of the home and the distribution of the proceeds. The wife was ordered to pay the husband's costs of and incidental to the proceedings. The orders also included provisions for the appointment of a Registrar to execute documents in the event of default and liberty to apply for implementation.
