If Family Court Orders are in place between an aggrieved and a respondent, a domestic violence order generally should not be inconsistent with such an order. However, the Magistrate has a power when making a domestic violence order under the Family Law Act 1975 to revive, vary, discharge or suspend the Family Court Order in limited circumstances.
