Income tax: capital gains: is there roll-over under section 126-5 or 126-15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if a CGT event happens because of a court order under the Family Law Act 1975 made by consent?

Yes. An order made by consent is a 'court order' in terms of paragraphs 126-5(1)(a) and 126-15(1)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (ITAA 1997). If a CGT event happens because of a consent order under the Family Law Act 1975, there is roll-over under section 126-5 or 126-15 of the ITAA 1997.
