Correction of an administrative error in a court record of an ADVO is not a variation of the order within s 72A of the Crimes (Domestic and Personal Violence) Act 2007 (NSW) and does not require a formal application. UCPR r 36.15 has no application to ADVO proceedings, which are characterised as criminal proceedings, and cannot be used by one court to set aside the judgments of another court. The principle in Dranichnikov (failure to respond to a substantial, clearly articulated argument) is not engaged where the applicant did not in fact make a substantive challenge to the reasonableness of costs.
