Veitch and Dempsey

In the matter of *Veitch and Dempsey*, heard before Berman J, the proceedings concerned an application for contravention filed on 1 February 2019. The specific details of the parties and the precise nature of the contravention were not elaborated upon in the provided text, beyond the fact that the application was brought by one party against another, presumably in relation to family law or child-related matters.

The central legal issue before the court was the determination of whether the contravention alleged in Count 2 of the application was proven. This required the court to assess the evidence presented in relation to that specific count and decide if the conduct alleged constituted a breach of a prior order or obligation.

Berman J found that Count 2 of the Application for Contravention was proven. Following this determination, the court ordered that the application be set down for sentencing of the father on 9 April 2019 at 9:00 am. This indicates that the court had satisfied itself that a contravention had occurred and was now proceeding to the stage of determining appropriate consequences.
