The applicant father brought an urgent motion seeking an order to travel with the parties' 10-year-old child to Greece for the Christmas School Break.
The respondent mother opposed the travel due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Omicron variant, and the child only having one dose of the vaccine.
The court dismissed the motion, finding that the international trip posed a higher risk and was not in the child's best interests, particularly noting the father's prior breaches of court orders and public health rules.
