24.01.2022 PARENTING CHANGEOVERS IN NSW IN LIGHT OF COVID-19 Since COVID-19, we have had a number of clients seeking clarification regarding whether they can travel to meet the changeover obligations within their parenting orders. Below is an overview of the newly introduced Public Health (COVID-19 Restrictions on Gathering and Movement) Order 2020, dated 30 March 2020. In NSW, the state government directs that a person must not, without reasonable excuse, leave a persons place of r...esidence.However, it defines a reasonable excuse, among others, as the following: 1.travelling for the purposes of attending childcare; 2.facilitating attendance at a school; 3.undertaking any legal obligations. Further, the NSW Government has directed that a person must not participate in a gathering in a public place of more than 2 persons unless, among others, that the gathering is necessary for the person to fulfil a legal obligation. In light of the above, travelling in NSW to facilitate changeovers between parents in circumstances where parenting orders exist, is not banned and should not be used as an excuse not to comply with parenting orders. It is understandable that the COVID-19 crisis is presenting parents with a myriad of complex issues, some of which do not neatly fit into existing legislation, however, should you need any advice about how to best handle your legal issue, message me here or call me now of 0410 598 740. Presently, I have a number of these matters that I am providing guidance and advice for my clients.

23.01.2022 APPREHENDED VIOLENCE ORDERS Whether you are a protected party or a respondent to an Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) if you are not informed of the consequences of a AVO the outcomes can be life changing. Police often do not have the resources or even the appropriate experience across family law, criminal or even on how a AVO works to advise you on how to work through domestic violence issues. Notably, Police have interests of prosecuting people and this is often not aligned ...with what is in the best interests of either protected parties or respondents to a AVO. We are a law firm that is Accredited as specialists in domestic violence; we take the view that alleged domestic violence must be seen in the bigger picture, including prevention, protection against prosecution, division of relationship assets in an equitable manner and child arrangements. We work in the Local Courts and advise on AVO applications; the Family Court jurisdiction on property division and child custody and also in the criminal courts dealing with alleged breaches of AVOs and domestic violence allegations. The first step is to talk to us about your circumstances and we will explain the processes to be engaged in and take on the burden of communicating with your partner and/or Police on your behalf. We offer to you support, as well as legal representation. Get in touch with us to discuss your situation by calling our Senior Lawyer, Matthew Buckley on 0410 598 740 or message us here on Facebook.

15.01.2022 EX FIANCÉE FABRICATES CLAIMS ABOUT PARTNERS ABUSE A web of lies and deceit spun by the woman who had promised to love him resulted in Mr Jones facing 20 years behind bars for crimes he did not commit. Daniel Jones met Sarah Jane Parkinson in 2011, and the pair quickly fell in love. Within just a few months they began planning a wedding and building their own home. ... However for months, Sarah Jane Parkinson had been feeding a story of heartbreaking abuse and violence to her police colleagues at Queanbeyan police station, where she worked as a clerical assistant. She told her police friends she was being brutally assaulted and abused by her fiance, Mr Jones. The false allegations resulted in 32 offences being laid against Mr Jones by police and a prison sentence in a maximum security prison. This article emphasises the need to get on the front foot and face any false allegations before any charges are laid. Should you need any advice on this or any other related matters contact me here on Facebook or call me on 0415 604 593.

I represented the Applicant in this private AVO matter involving intimidation, harassment and death threats in a sporting environment from one hockey mother to another.... The matter has been adjourned for six weeks in order for both parties to serve evidence on the other.

11.01.2022 MAN STABBED BY WOMAN WIELDING HIGH HEELS When Kyle Johns, 19, headed out on February 23 to party with a friend in Brisbanes Fortitude Valley, he had no idea his night would end in the emergency room, getting staples in his scalp. As he walked down China Town Mall in the early hours of Sunday morning, he was suddenly approached by Jazzmin Fry, a complete stranger out celebrating her 21st birthday.... Fry then stabbed Johns in the head with her heel, leaving him bloodied and fearing for his life. Last week, Fry pleaded guilty to assault and a magistrate imposed a $250 fine with no conviction recorded. Its a result that has upset Johns, who feels like the punishment would have been far more severe if it was him who had attacked a woman.

10.01.2022 CONCILIATION CONFERENCE AT FEDERAL CIRCUIT COURT Today I represented a client at a Conciliation Conference in Melbourne. I approached the negotiations from my pragmatic point of view and worked a shuttle style mediation between the parties. The net effect was a final property settlement being reached. While I was in Court I resolved the parenting dispute between the parties also giving my client real value for money....

10.01.2022 CORONAVIRUS AND BAIL APPLICATIONS. Coronavirus is impacting on the prospects for bail. Accused persons who have been refused bail previously are now being granted bail due to the issue of delay. Here is a case extract where Coronavirus has directly impacted on bail:... Re Broes [2020] VSC 128 (19 March 2020): [46]Given the extraordinary circumstances in which we now find ourselves, I have come to the conclusion that an already significant delay will be likely exacerbated by the consequences of COVID-19, and I am therefore satisfied that exceptional circumstances have been established. [39] there can be no question that once the virus is discovered in any of the Victorian prisons, there will have to be a significant lockdown for a number of reasons. The transmission between prisoners will be significant and likely to occur at a much greater rate than the transmission that is occurring in the community at present. That will result in a large number of prisoners becoming quite seriously ill, depending on their age and underlying conditions. I appreciate these are matters of speculation to a degree, but the situation is sufficiently urgent to required them to be taken into account. Further bearing in mind that the entire situation may have changed again within one or two weeks. I can be contacted here on Facebook message or by mobile direct 0410 639 921. We do not charge a fee for your initial inquiry so get in touch if you have any questions.

06.01.2022 POLICE ENFORCEMENT OF PARENTING ORDERS At first instance State Police Powers are limited to undertaking a welfare check on families to ensure that in particular children are being cared for in a safe environment. If one parent is not complying with parenting orders during the COVID-19 restrictions for no other reason than the requirement to self-isolate then parenting orders can and will be enforced.... A Recovery Order Application if filed with the court, if granted an urgent hearing will be heard and determined within seven days. This can include the enforcement of spend time arrangements for the non-primary care parent, for example, to enforce school holiday time or each alternate weekend time. Once a Recovery Order is issued by the court then the Australian Federal Police (AFP) can come in and remove children from a parent. AFP action is not normally required, as by the time a court order is issued the other parent will normally comply. If you are being denied court order time pursuant to court order, Mr William Alstergren, Chief Justice of the Family Court and the Federal Circuit Court of Australia has proclaimed that there will be consequences and the courts will take decisive immediate action to redress non-compliance. https://www.abc.net.au//amid-covid-19-parents-mus/12124306 If you need advice of compliance with parenting orders get in touch with me here on Facebook by message or contact me direct on 0410 639 921.

05.01.2022 DIVORCE REQUESTS SOAR AFTER LOCKDOWN Chinese society is going through a subsequent divorce crisis after the coronavirus lockdown. A quote from the articles says: -... Although the flood of reservations may be a result of the long shutdown of government services, Zhou Xiaopeng, an expert on marital relationships, pointed to another cause. In a post on her official social media account, Zhou said married couples became stressed out after being forced to work from home and confined to their residences together for a long period. Under these conditions, she said, couples tend to fight more and lose feelings of attachment to each other. A lesson here to learn some tolerance during the pandemic that we now are going through in Australia.

04.01.2022 FAMILY COURTS TO STAY OPEN DESPITE COVID-19 CRISIS The Federal Circuit Court and Family Court Chief Justice Will Alstergren said the Family Courts will stay open despite the current crisis overwhelming the country. Justice Alstergren said the courts will hold as many hearings as possible using video conferencing or telephone, but where in-person appearances needed to occur, they would.... In times of crisis, there is greater propensity for family violence, he said. We have to make sure we provide access to justice, we have to ensure people are properly cared for in those times. Since the spread of the Coronavirus, a number of changes have occurred in the Family Courts. The number of people in a court room has been reduced, cases are being staggered, hearing times reduced and rooms cleaned afterwards.

03.01.2022 OUT OF TIME PROPERTY APPLICATION Yesterday I appeared in the Federal Circuit Court in Sydney on a matter involving an out of time settlement. In property proceedings, parties have a period of 12 months post divorce in which they are permitted to bring the matter before the court however leave leave can also be granted by the court under section 44(6) of the Family Law Act in circumstances of financial hardship to a party.... In the case today, our client was divorced in 2014 and had jointly owned property with the other side. Despite the parties being 3 1/2 years outside of the limitation period the judge granted leave to hear the matter. For any advice on your family law matter or how any potential time limitations might apply to you, please message me here on Facebook or contact me on 04 1560 4593. Matthew Buckley Solicitor

02.01.2022 CORONAVIRUS COURTS The courts are racing to put in place technology for hearings to be done remotely. In terms of criminal and traffic law what this means is that persons who are not present in a court room will not be at risk of going to jail.... Bail applications will be able to be run on account of delays being encountered and persons are more likely to get bail granted. We further believe that there will be significant delays in police issuing charges as their resources are diverted and given the fact that police technology also needs to catch up to file documentation with courts remotely. In both the criminal and civil courts, we are rapidly moving to a position where appearances will be managed through the electronic and digital environment see: https://www.itnews.com.au//victoria-races-to-scale-up-virt We as a law firm available to give legal advice and to support the community continue to remain open during this period and if you have any inquiries in regard to criminal law or even other areas of law we are available to help you.
