APPLICATION NO:
SECTIO...
I cast my memory back to a hui of the Māori Law Society that was held not far from here, in Waitangi in 2015, when Sir Justice Joe Williams posed the question to the Society, Can you see the island?
While the Māori Land Court is not required to consider the local authority district plan when determining an application for an urupā reservation on Māori freehold land, a stricter approach may be taken if the urupā is proposed to be placed on general land.
Generally speaking, where next of kin die before the person
from whom succession is sought, the children of the next of kin are entitled to the share they would have received had they
survived the deceased.
4 Notice of hearing
While an applicant is not required to give formal notice of hearing to other beneficiaries, he or she is expected to consult with
