105.46 Nature of functions of Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2)
A function of making an order conferred on a Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2) by section 105.43 is conferred on the Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2) in a personal capacity and not as a court or a member of a court.
Without limiting the generality of subsection (1), an order made by a Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2) under section 105.43 has effect only by virtue of this Act and is not to be taken by implication to be made by a court.
A Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2) performing a function of, or connected with, making an order under section 105.43 has the same protection and immunity as if he or she were performing that function as, or as a member of, the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2).
