Hello
I was wondering if anyone could tell me the likelihood of a DVO being struck out at the first hearing? Is this something that the respondent is able to ask the magistrate for initially, or does it have to wait to go to trial?
If we take enough evidence to show that it is unfounded to the first mention, and also that the applicant has previous form for making false allegations, is there any chance of it being struck out?
The children, who are in our custody, are named on it and the respondent has previously tried to coach the children into making false allegations, which has been documented and addressed by child safety.
