‘Hale LJ opined in Hale v Tanner, that applications for committal within a family law context raise unique considerations (for example, children).[1] The procedure is complex and must be followed meticulously as the application will fail if it is not. This is because the consequences of the application succeeding are serious – a person’s liberty is at stake.’
