The importance placed on the relationship between a parent and child under the Family Law Act 1975 is significant. However, the best interests of the child are considered paramount and a number of issues, including any history of family violence involving the child or a family member of the child, must be considered.

In this blog, the Magistrates, District and Supreme Courts we refer to are all South Australian Courts. They each have their counter parts interstate, although in some states of Australia the Magistrates Court is called the Local Court and the District Court is called the County Court. Each Court operates under its own rules and legislation.

“Annulment” of a marriage is not considered a legal term in Australia. Annulment is an American legal procedure, meaning to declare a marriage null and void.

In the last twenty years in which I have practised in the field of negligence law, almost invariably when victims of medical negligence are initially seen, they are very focused on the issue of a breach of standard of care; that is, whether the doctor or hospital concerned failed to comply with competent professional practice.
