Rapallino & Dekker – When One Appeal Fails, Don’t File Another
15/05/2025
Rapallino & Dekker (No 3) [2025] FedCFamC1A 60 was a decision of His Honour, Aldridge J, in respect of property settlement proceedings that had been before a Division 1 Judge. In those proceedings the Appellant Wife was to receive 65%of the asset pool. Thereafter the Appellant filed a Notice of Appeal, within time, and the appeal was then heard on 12 February 2025 by a full bench of their Honours, Aldridge, Gill & Strum JJ, and dismissed. At that point the issue of costs had not been determined with the parties to file written submissions in that regard.
