FAMILY LAW – APPEAL – CHILDREN – Where the appellant father appealed from parenting orders providing inter alia that the children live with their mother and that they spend time with their father for four nights in each fortnight during the school term, for half the school holidays and on other occasions – Where there was no challenge to the trial Judge’s findings of fact – Where the appellant father asserted that the trial Judge erred in failing to order that the children spend equal time with each parent – Where the trial Judge relied on the expert evidence of the family consultant to the effect that an equal time arrangement was not in the best interests of the children given the extreme level of inter-parental conflict and the parents’ inability to communicate and cooperate with each other – No appealable error established.
NOTE: The period for seeking special leave to appeal to the High Court has not expired.
