Vincenzo and Vincenzo

In the matter of *Vincenzo and Vincenzo*, heard by Cronin J, the wife sought to restrain the husband from disclosing financial information concerning the Vincenzo Group entities. The dispute concerned the appropriate orders to be made following an application filed on 23 April 2012 and a response filed on 17 May 2012.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether an injunction should be granted to prevent the wife from disclosing financial information relating to the Vincenzo Group entities. The court was also required to determine the overall disposition of the application and its response, and to consider the matter of costs.

Cronin J reasoned that an injunction was necessary to protect the confidentiality of the financial information of the Vincenzo Group entities. The court ordered that the wife be restrained from disclosing such information to any person other than those advising her on legal and accounting matters, until further order. The court further ordered that the application and response filed by the parties be dismissed, with the exception of any applications for costs. Any applications for costs were to be made by written submission, with specific timelines for filing, service, and response, and were to be determined in chambers.
