White and White (No 2)

In *White and White (No 2)*, the applicant sought orders regarding costs following a hearing on 16 June 2016 concerning an application filed on 7 April 2016. The respondent was the other party to the proceedings.

The primary legal issue before Gill J was the determination of the appropriate costs order to be made between the parties. This involved considering the extent to which each party should bear the costs of the litigation.

Gill J ordered that the applicant pay seventy-five percent of the respondent's costs of and incidental to the hearing. Furthermore, the Court certified that it was reasonable for the respondent to have briefed counsel for the proceedings, pursuant to Rule 19.50 of the Family Law Rules.
