Yargis & Hope

In *Yargis & Hope*, heard before Moore J, the dispute concerned parenting orders for two children, S and T. The parents sought to establish arrangements for the children's living arrangements and time spent with each parent.

The court was required to determine the most appropriate orders for the children's future, specifically addressing issues of equal shared parental responsibility, the children's primary residence, and the nature and extent of the time the children would spend with their mother.

Moore J made orders for equal shared parental responsibility, with the children to live with their father. The mother was to spend time with the children for a period of four months from the date of the orders. This time was to be structured, involving one day every alternate weekend for two hours at a nominated contact centre, with efforts to arrange this on Sundays. Additionally, the parents were required to complete any necessary intake or assessment procedures with a specified contact service within seven days of the orders.
