937B Freezing orders
The Court or a judge may make an order (a "freezing order"), upon or without notice to a respondent, for the purpose of preventing the frustration or inhibition of the Court’s process by seeking to meet a danger that a judgment or prospective judgment of the Court or a judge will be wholly or partly unsatisfied.
A freezing order may be an order restraining a respondent from removing any assets located in or outside Australia or from disposing of, dealing with or diminishing the value of those assets.
