YDW v YDZ [2023] NSWCATAP 332

YDW v YDZ [2023] NSWCATAP 332

The appeal was dismissed because none of the challenged procedural or interlocutory decisions revealed error in law or fact, denial of natural justice, or failure to consider relevant matters. The orders dispensing with an oral hearing, refusing separate hearings, and rejecting the summons applications were lawfully and reasonably made, and leave to appeal interlocutory procedural orders lacked merit.
