Summary

This was the sentencing hearing following the respondent father's conviction for contempt of court for breaching custody and access orders. The father again failed to appear. The court imposed a custodial sentence of 4 months, finding no mitigating factors given the father's deliberate refusal to engage in the proceedings, with costs on an indemnity basis.
