- High Court
The High Court dismissed the appeal and upheld the Family Court's exercise of discretion under s82: the Judge had not acted on a wrong principle nor been plainly wrong in finding the respondent's reasonable monthly needs (including interim legal and accounting costs) justified $17,000 per month for six months and that the appellant had the ability to meet that interim award by drawing on capital and controlled entities.
