Rules Discussed
- Rule 9.13 Re-opening case
Case Summary
The Court considered an Application to modify an earlier Judgment and corresponding Order pursuant to Rule 9.13. The underlying Judgment related to a parenting arrangement. Justice Devlin reviewed the facts of the dispute and the jurisprudence related to the application of Rule 9.13 in the family law context. His Lordship concluded that the fresh evidence adduced satisfied the legal criteria for the admission of the Application and, therefore, opted to exercise the Judicial discretion granted under Rule 9.13 to alter the earlier Judgment.
