Quote: Family law courts excessive workload engenders a cookie-cutter approach

“There's 40 matters on a duty list in an interim hearing in Melbourne on a Tuesday. The judge has got to get through 40 matters. What the judge wants is for the barristers to go outside, settle as many as they can and come back with some consent orders—'the usual standard orders, thanks'.”
