Developed by judges for judges and published by Te Kura Kaiwhakawā (Institute of Judicial Studies), the bench book offers guidance on what judges may need to know, understand, and do when hearing applications in the Māori Land Court (the Court). Although written for judges, its public release promotes transparency in the justice system, assists Māori landowners and their advisors, and supports educational purposes.
In Pātaka Whenua, you can find information about your whenua, search the court record, make an application or enquiry online and pay the application filing fee.
Before applying to the Māori Land Court for an occupation
order, you will need consent from the other owners of the
land, and if applicable, from trustees or the management
committee of the Māori incorporation over the land.
Pātaka Whenua gives you the ability to search and access Māori land information, submit an enquiry and file a Court application from anywhere at any time. For more information about Pātaka Whenua visit our Pātaka Whenua guidance page .
