Wilkins and Currie

In the matter of *Wilkins and Currie*, Johns J of the Supreme Court of Tasmania was required to determine an application for contempt. The specific nature of the contempt alleged and the precise relationship between the parties, Wilkins and Currie, were not detailed in the provided text.

The central legal issue before the Court was whether the application for contempt, filed on 9 January 2017, should be struck out. This required the Court to consider the sufficiency of the application and the grounds upon which it was brought.

Johns J determined that the application for contempt should be struck out. While the specific reasoning for this decision is not elaborated upon in the provided text, the outcome indicates that the application failed to meet the necessary legal threshold for proceeding.
