\par 1. The surety }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 Suruj Singh}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101  has filed an appeal against
 the decision of the Resident Magistrate ("RM") of 12 June 2015 wherein it was ordered on the wife's application for variation of maintenance for the child of the marriage to be increased from $75.00 per week to $150.00 per week.
\par 
\par 2. The child of the marriage was born }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 in}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 
 1995. He had attained the age of 18 years as at the time of the determination of the application. The need for continued maintenance arose since the child was attending tertiary institution to complete his basic education.

nsuring that the new surety enters into a bond and be stopped from leaving the country when il was arranged by them, the son being the former surety and the father being the new surety to the terms proposed and accepted by Court.
\par 
\par 12. The Court record does not show that the new surety was present in Court when he was accepted as a reliable person to replace the outgoing surety but immediately after the order s, the new surety Mr. }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 
\f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 Suruj Singh}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101  started appearing in Court. Since then, it was never raised in Court that Mr. }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 
Suruj Singh}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101  was made a surety without his knowledge.
\par For that to be raised in the High is alarming and definitive of some technical argument having being realized in the last minute to escape liability.
\par 
\par 13. Since the argument as to who should be the surety if at all was before me, I had immediately ordered that both the father and the son be stopped from leaving the country and that the son }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 
Shamal Singh}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101  be issued with a notice to attend Court to clarify why he got his father appointed without his consent.
\par 
\par 14. The two sureties realized that this matter was going to be treated very seriously as they both appeared to take undue advantage of the situation created by either one or both of them.
\par 
\par 15. When both the sureties appeared before me, it was confirmed that the new surety }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 Suruj Singh}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 
 had only stepped in after he had agreed to have his son released from the procee
dings in his duties as a surety. After that clarification was obtained, the father and son both consented that the father remains the surety. I therefore ordered that the father }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 Suruj Singh}{

\par 
\par 19. The first few grounds can be summarized to raise an issue as to whether the father }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 Suruj Singh}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101

maintenance when he did not enter into a surety bond }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid11101952\charrsid12654101 a}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 
nd did not understand the terms image that he was bound by.
\par 
\par 20. I have indicated already that the father of the then surety }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 Shamal Singh}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 
 wished to replace his son as he wanted his son to go out of Fiji for a holiday. The Court had replaced }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid5662971 Shamal Singh}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 
\f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 
 with his father and there was no surety bond signed by the new surety. The Court record also does not show that he was present in Court that day. However, whenever the matter was subsequently called in court, the new surety was av}{\rtlch\fcs1 
\af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid11101952\charrsid12654101 ai}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 lable and took part in the proceedings.
\par 
\par 21. Although the new surety did not sign the bond and is not recorded to have appeared in Court, his subsequent appearance in Court and not taking any objections to him being ordered to replace his son as surety indicates 
that the current surety was joined with his consent. He had agreed that his son be relieved off his obligation and be allowed to leave the country and that he will assume the responsibilities that his son was bound by.
\par 
\par 22. The mother of the child had always objected to the surety being replaced and if there is any amiss arising out of the arrangement made by the father and son, the child on behalf of whom she is collecting the maintenance cannot be affected.
\par 
\par 23. Although the new surety did not sign the bo
nd, he was fully aware of the terms of the bond, and if he was not, he should not have agreed to become a surety. It was his responsibility to ensure that he asks his counsel or the Court as to what his obligations were. If he was not agreeable to the ter
ms, he should have asked the Court to discharge him and re-appoint his son.

\par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 
24. If the son had got his father appointed as the surety without consulting him, then the father should have informed the Court when he appeared in Court. The father did not take a
ny such action and was waiting for a suitable time to make a compliant that he has not signed the bond and was not explained the terms. This is a deliberate attempt to disrupt the proceedings of the Court and deprive the child of his right to be maintaine

\par 25. The actions of the paternal family shows disregard for the interest of the child. The proceedings indicate that the aim is to deprive the child of any mainten}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid11101952\charrsid12654101 an}{
\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 ce which will deprive the child of tertiary education. This attempt is not in line with the rights of the child under the 2013 Constitution of Fiji and the FLA.
\par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid16074802 
\par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 26. When I questioned both the father and the son as to how the arrangement was made to }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid11101952\charrsid12654101 have th

knowledge of the father. It was even at that point in time that I was prepared to discharge the father and re-appoint the son when both consented that the father}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid9963073  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 
\ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid285287\charrsid12654101 remains as the surety. I therefore find that the complaint that he was not the surety who was responsible to safeguard the interest of the child an excruciating statement.
\par 
\par 27. The original bond that the surety son had signed had a specific term in it that he will r
eceive any application for variation of maintenance. That is a clear responsibility that was spelt out in the bond. Since the new surety was replacing the old one, his responsibility cannot be any different from that in the original bond unless he was spe
cifically excluded from compliance.

\par 30. The next issue is when the Court failed to consider the oral and affidavit evidence of the surety on the grounds that he was not permitted to defend the proceedings under the bond and that his evidence tantamount to hearsay evidence and as 
such of no value. It was asserted that having disregarded the evidence of the surety, there was breach of natural justice as the appellant remained unheard when his evidence through the surety was pertinent.
\par 
\par 31. The RM had found that the bond did not permit the surety to file a response on behalf of the appellant and to give evidence and therefore the response and his evidence was disregarded.
\par 
\par 32. I think the two matters must be looked at separately. The first one is defending the proceeding and the secon
d one is giving evidence in Court. In the circumstances of this case the two actions of the surety of filing the response and defending the proceedings on one hand and the giving of evidence on the other hand could be identified, in the larger interest of
 justice, as having being done in two different capacities.

 case the surety had filed a response and not the appellant. It appears from the response that had been filed that the particulars of information endorsed in the response regarding the income and expenses are that of the appellant. For the information to 
b
e considered as a sworn and reliable testimony, the appellant ought to have signed the same before a person entitled to administer oath. So far as the validity of information in the response is concerned, the Court was correct in not relying upon it as it

 appellant's concern which is when the Court did not even consider the sworn oral testimony of the surety on the grounds that the bond did not permit the surety to defend the proceedings and }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

\par 
\par 36. The surety was i

ct the legal proceedings. As a party to the case, the appellant is entitled to defend his matter. The surety is only responsible for the appellant's liability. The surety can sue and defend on his behalf if he was legally empowered by the appellant to do 
so. There was no such contractual arrangement shown to the Court which empowered the surety to undertake such a task.
\par 
\par 38. Although, the evidence that the surety extracted through cross-examination of the respondent should be disallowed on the basis that he
 could not defend the proceedings as he had not shown any authority from the appellant to sue and defend on his behalf, he was in a position to testify as a witness for the appellant regarding the appellant's income and expenditure. As a witness he could 
be cross examined as well. The appellant has a right to defend the proceedings by asking his witnesses to testify on his behalf and that right is not restricted by his non- appearance in Court.
\par 
\par 39. The Court refused the evidence of the surety on the grounds that his evidence on the appellant's financials was inadmissible and that it be disregarded. That finding of the Court is an error of l}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

\par 
\par 4. The oral evidence of the surety indicated that the respondent earn
ed $700 per week after tax and that his expenses were $700 per week. The surety also testified that he could not verify the expenses but that the appellant was supporting his old parents in Australia.
\par 
\par 43. The pay slip of the appellant that was tendered wa
s dated November 2013. The hearing of the matter took place six months post the date in the pay slip. The surety did not know whether the c1ppellant's pay had been increased since the date of the pay slip.
\par 
\par 44. In my analysis the appellant had exaggerated his expenses to the same amount as his net pay to avoid liability. The evidence reve}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f40\fs24\insrsid14765489\charrsid12654101 a}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

\par 47. From the above expenses I do not find any expense to be exorbitant considering the fact that the child is attending the University and requires his needs to be attended to without him having to borrow 
money from friends and family to ensure smooth stay in the University.

the Court correctly did not cast its mind to ss. 90 and 91 solely and absolutely. The applicable extent to which these sections ought to have been considered was to determine whether the child's expenses have 
increased and whether the parents have the respective income or earning capacity to meet the increased expenses of the child after proper allowance is made for their expenditure. The Court can also under these sections consider the earnings of the child a
nd any assets in his name which are or are capable of generating income.
