Citation of decisions of the Māori Land Court and Māori Appellate Court
A guide to how decisions of the Māori Land Court and Māori Appellate Court should be cited.
Appeals to Māori Appellate Court - in relation to a decision of the Māori Land Court
Under section 171 of the Local Government (Water Services) Act 2025, parties may appeal to the Māori Appellate Court on a question of law only in relation to a decision of the Māori Land Court around access to Māori land for water infrastructure. How to apply
Appeal applications can be filed by the water service provider or landowners and charging order applications can be filed by landowners....
Our record holds information about court decisions, and the conversations about how those decisions are made. It also holds information about the whakapapa of landowners.
It is a good idea to ask them about:
What land blocks you might be an owner in
An accurate record of your whakapapa
How you became an owner or beneficiary to your whenua.
If you are a whānau or hapū member who did not submit the application but would like to speak in Court, you can file a ‘ Notice of intention to appear upon application ’. This lets us know how many people are planning to speak, although the final decision on who can speak will always be up to the judge.
