Court Notices published in Govt. Gazette No 20,337 of 24th January 2020

By means of a decree given by the Civil Court (Family Section) on the 22nd January, 2020, by the Court above mentioned (JPG) in the records of the General Application in the names Alison Gheiti vs Felix Gheiti, Application Number 556/2019 JPG, the following publication was orderd for the purpose of service of the respondent Felix Gheiti, in terms of Article 187(3) et sequitur of Cap. 12. In virtue of the same decree of the 22nd January, 2020, the Court upheld the demand of the applicant Alison Gheiti, so that further to the demands brought forward in virtue of the application of the 17th December, 2019, there be added the demand further down indicated as regards  the travelling of minors. This addition is to be notified to the respondent Felix Gheiti, by means of this publication as above indicated.

By means of an Application presented in the Civil Court (Family Section) in the names Alison Gheiti vs Felix Gheiti, on the 17th December, 2019, Application by Urgency of Alison Gheiti (ID 58980M) the applicant respectfully pleaded:

That from the marriage of the parties two children were born … omissis …, siblings Gheiti;

That the parties obtained personal separation by a judgement given by this Honourable Court reference 143/06 NC, which became res judicata on the 24th June, 2010. In virtue of this judgement the interpellant was entrusted with the care and custody of the two minor children;

That the minor … omissis … is a member of the under seventeen (17) netball national team and was chosen to represent Malta in the Isle of Man between the 28th February, 2020, and the 1st March, 2020;

That this is not the first time that the minor went abroad with the netball national team and has already been given authorisation previously by this Honourable Court;

That the interpellant has no means to communicate with the respondent who has not had any form of contact with his children and the interpellant for at least these last six years. Thus it is impossible for the interpellant to obtain the consent of the respondent in order that their minor daughter … omissis … can go for this trip.

Thus the interpellant humbly prays this Honourable Court:

1. To exempt the interpellant from the obligation to notify the respondent with this application for the reasons premised;

2. Authorise that till the date when the passport of the minor lapses and namely till the 1st August, 2020, the consent of the father Felix Gheiti is not necessary so that … omissis … can travel freely outside the Maltese Islands;

3. In default of upholding of the first demand authorise that the minor can go abroad to the Isle of Man between the 27th of February, 2020, and the 2nd March, 2020, both days included, and thus order that the relative rubber stamp on the present passport be made and this under any provision it deems fit and opportune.

By means of this publication, the demand of the interpellant Alison Gheiti brought forward and upheld by the Court is being notified and this in virtue of this publication as upheld on the 22nd January, 2020, by the same Court.

The Court authorises the minor children of the applicant to go abroad outside the Maltese Islands, without the necessity of authorisation or consent of the father and that she applies and renews any passport of the same minor without the signature or authorisation or presence of the father.

The General Application in the names Alison Gheiti vs Felix Gheiti, General Application number 556/2019 JPG, has been put off for hearing to the 7th February, 2020, at 9.45 a.m.
