Family Law Sample Cases
Division 1
The Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Formerly The Family Court of Australia)
This Court is the Court in which complex property settlement and/or parenting cases are filed. This is also the Court that the Federal Circuit Court transfers such cases initiated in the Federal Circuit Court that are deemed complex by the Federal Circuit Court to the Family Court. This Court conducts the “Magellan List” which are parenting cases concerning very serious allegations of sexual or other abuse of children with the intention that such cases are given priority and are fast-tracked to Trial.
