| A Federal Circuit Court judge who jailed a father of two for a maximum of 12 months for contempt of court in family law proceedings has been blasted by the Family Court for committing a "gross miscarriage of justice".
The ruling comes as the peak body for the nation's lawyers warns the planned merger of the courts is deeply flawed and should not proceed.
Brisbane-based Federal Circuit Court Judge Salvatore Vasta told the man, who was involved in a property dispute with his former wife, to "bring your toothbrush" after he allegedly failed to hand over all his financial records.
