If you have a current application in the Māori Land Court that is being delayed by a dispute, you can ask for your application to be put on hold while you attempt to settle the dispute outside of court.
Court hearings take place at our sites in Whangārei, Hamilton, Rotorua, Gisborne, Hastings, Whanganui, and Christchurch. We also hold hearings at various venues away from our office sites across the country.
