High Court, in an ex tempore judgment, refuses an application for an Isaac Wunder Order by a mother in family judicial review proceedings brought by a father, on the grounds that there was no evidence before the court that the father was being vexatious in his litigation.
Application for an Isaac Wunder Order - applicant applied for judicial review and respondent applied for the Isaac Wunder Order - Irish and UK case law on Isaac Wunder Orders - exceptional nature of Isaac Wunder Orders - proceedings relate to family law proceedings between the parties - applicant in Isaac Wunder Order application bears the burden of proving habitual unreasonable and or vexatious applications - litigation of respondent to application is focused on increasing access - current order is one which prevents the Respondent from direct access to his son indefinitely - not enough evidence in relation to the most recent Judicial Review that the respondent is being vexatious - no Isaac Wunder Order made - no order as to costs.
