Padgett [2025] FedCFamC1A 140

02/09/2025

Padgett [2025] FedCFamC1A 140 involved proceedings in both the Magistrates Court of Western Australia and the Family Court of Western Australia where a ‘Harmful Proceedings’ Order had been made against the Applicant, Ms Padgett. Prior to May 2024 this was quite commonly referred to as the litigant having been declared a vexatious litigant and was generally the result of a litigant having filed multiple proceedings which were, quite often, doomed from the outset.

At a time when family violence is foremost in our minds and there have been many changes to the legislation to recognise the impact of family violence it seems unusual that a Division 2 Judge would seem to completely dismiss verified instances of serious risk but that is what happened in Friseal & Friseal [2025] FedCFamC2F 75, a case in Hobart that also involved the Department for Education, Children and Young People (“the Department”) as an intervener.

Those proceedings involved a child who was five years old at the time of the hearing in late 2024, albeit those proceedings had commenced in 2023.

Oberon & Aquila (No 2) [2025] FedCFamC2F 400

16/08/2025

This was a judgment from one of our more recent Division 2 appointments, Judge Colquhoun. Her Honour had made property settlement Orders on 7 February 2024 (“the 2024 Orders”) however, the parties were now in dispute as to the interpretation of one of those Orders – The Trustee is empowered to take possession of the [Suburb C] property and require vacant possession in order to effect a sale of the [Suburb C] property.
