CaseChat Overview and Summary
In the matter of *Wilkie & Wilkie*, Cronin J of the Federal Circuit Court of Australia considered an application concerning the sale of a property at B Street, Suburb C. The dispute arose between a husband and wife, with the wife being the respondent to an application filed on 26 November 2014.
The primary legal issue before the court was whether the wife should be compelled to sign a contract of sale dated 22 November 2014 for the property. The court was required to determine the enforceability of this contract and the appropriate orders to be made in relation to the property's sale.
Cronin J ordered that the wife forthwith sign the contract of sale dated 22 November 2014 in relation to the property at B Street, Suburb C. The court also ordered that the wife pay the husband’s costs of the application on a scale basis, to be agreed or assessed. The application filed on 26 November 2014 was otherwise dismissed.
