Wilder and Anson

In the matter of *Wilder and Anson*, heard before Cronin J, the wife had filed applications alleging contraventions by the husband. The precise nature of these alleged contraventions is not detailed, but the proceedings concerned applications made by the wife on 8 February 2010 and 16 February 2010.

The central legal issue before the court was whether the contravention applications filed by the wife should be struck out. This required the court to consider the sufficiency of the applications and whether they met the necessary legal threshold for proceeding to a hearing on the merits of the alleged contraventions.

Cronin J determined that the applications should be struck out. While the specific reasons for this decision are not elaborated upon in the provided text, the outcome indicates that the applications, as filed, were found to be deficient in a manner that warranted their dismissal without a full hearing. The court ordered that its reasons be transcribed and made available to the parties.
