Historically, trust applications were heard by a Māori Land
Court judge.
Now, if your application is assessed to be ‘simple and
uncontested’, then it can be decided by a Māori Land Court
registrar without a court sitting (unless you request to be
heard by a judge in a court sitting).
Note that this right does not extend to a
mortgagee sale – see paragraphs 22-23 above.
Trust Order: A Courtorder setting out the terms under which trustees hold and
manage land or other assets vested in them by the owners of the land or assets.
Application approved – partition order made
after the court has made the partition
order, the Māori Land court will send a
copy of the order to the district council,
who will update their rating records.
