There has long been concern about the dynamics and inadequacies that may arise when the federal family law system intersects with state and territory civil responses to family violence. We explore the intersection of these two legal regimes in this article. Our findings are part of a larger project examining the Family Violence Act 2016 (ACT) that included interviewing both professional stakeholders and those with lived experience. Findings include a number of ways in which the safety of victim/survivors and their children could be jeopardised (or placed at risk) due to disharmony and communication issues between the two regimes.

管辖权冲突?ACT 对家庭暴力和家庭法的回应
长期以来,人们一直担心联邦家庭法体系与州和领地对家庭暴力的民事反应相交叉时可能出现的动态和不足之处。我们在本文中探讨了这两种法律制度的交集。我们的调查结果是审查2016 年家庭暴力法案(ACT)的更大项目的一部分,该项目包括采访专业利益相关者和有生活经验的人。调查结果包括由于两个政权之间的不和谐和沟通问题,受害者/幸存者及其子女的安全可能受到危害(或置于危险之中)的多种方式。
