Wenlack and Cimorelli (No. 4)

In *Wenlack and Cimorelli (No. 4)*, Hannam J of the Family Court of Australia considered an application concerning the final orders made on 27 August 2015 regarding three children. The dispute involved the living arrangements and parental responsibility for the children, as well as the mother's contact with them.

The court was required to determine whether to suspend the existing final orders, establish new living arrangements for the children, allocate parental responsibility, and vary the terms of the mother's supervised time with the children. Additionally, the court had to consider the discharge of certain interim orders made in October 2019.

Hannam J ordered that the final orders of 27 August 2015 be suspended, and that the children live with the father, who was granted sole parental responsibility. The father was directed to enrol the children at T Primary School. Several interim orders from October 2019 were discharged, while others were continued with variations. Specifically, the mother's supervised time with the children was to occur at a Children’s Contact Service for two hours per fortnight, with provisions for additional time if available, and both parents were to facilitate this contact. The Independent Children’s Lawyer was granted liberty to provide the orders and reasons to the contact service.
