Use this form to file an appeal against a final decision or determination of the Māori Land Court.
An appeal under Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993 may only be lodged within 2 months from the date of the
decision or determination, unless accompanied by an application seeking leave to appeal out of time on Form 1.
One of the great advantages of establishing a marae, papakāinga, meeting place, recreational or sports ground, or wāhi tapu as a Māori reservation is that while the land is a Māori reservation it cannot be alienated.
Te Puna Manawa Whenua is written by Māori Land Court judges. It is overseen by a judicial editing komiti, comprised of Māori Land Court judges, supported by legal research counsel from the Māori Land Court.
Chief Judge Caren Fox and Pae Matua Steve Gunson are very happy to release the first Māori Land Court and Māori Appellate Court Annual Report, covering the period from Matariki 2022 – Matariki 2023.
