FD25F00014 - [2025] EWHC 2483 (Fam)

Although I have made an immediate child arrangements order, I recognise the possibility that the Court’s assistance may be required again before YV leaves the jurisdiction. I have therefore adjourned this matter until 9 December 2025 (or until such earlier date as YV travels to Kazakhstan) with permission to the parties to apply on 48 hours’ notice in the meantime. If no application is made before that date, the proceedings are to stand dismissed.

The parties have permission to disclose my judgments and my order of 9 September to the Kazakh Embassy and to the grandmother. She has permission to disclose the judgment to social services and government agencies in Kazakhstan and to any court in Kazakhstan considering issues concerning YV.
