Magistrates' Court (Family Violence Protection) Rules 2018

A respondent for a final order may make an application for rehearing under section 122 of the Act by filing the application at the venue of the Court where the order sought to be set aside was made.

The registrar must—

list the application for hearing; and

serve a copy of the application and affidavit in support on the other parties to the proceeding.

If the application for rehearing is struck out because the applicant failed to appear at the time fixed for hearing of the application, any further application for rehearing is taken to be an application for leave to reapply under section 122(4) of the Act.
