- Court
- High Court
Section 95 requires the High Court to approve a Commissioner’s settlement if it is consistent with the Act’s purposes and the overall interests of justice; applying that test, the Court was satisfied given the disputed allegations, the respondent’s cooperation, the absence of other claimed interests in the assets, and the agreed payment of $10,000, and therefore approved the settlement and ordered rescission of the restraining order as to the specified property and vehicle once the payment and memorandum conditions were met.
