- High Court
The High Court found no error in the Family Court's factual findings: the child was habitually resident in Australia immediately before removal and there was no clear evidence of acquiescence; there was insufficient evidence to establish the s106(1)(a) settled defence and leave to add that ground was refused; therefore the appeal was dismissed and the return order upheld.
