Grant of administration
made by the High Court
When the High Court has already made
a grant of administration, the Māori Land
Court can hold a succession hearing.
Te Puna Manawa Whenua
Māori Land Court Bench Book
Te Puna Manawa Whenua has been developed by judges for judges, and outlines what they may need to know, understand, and do when hearing applications in the Māori Land Court.
Use this form to file an appeal against an interim or preliminary decision or determination of the Māori Land
Court in which there remain outstanding matters for the Court to address.
After 18 months of hearings in Rotorua, 15 applications concerning the administration and utilisation of Utuhina No.3H No’s 2 & 3 Subdivision F will shortly be completed.
This form should not be used to Appeal against a decision of the Māori Land Court or Māori Appellate Court
nor should it be used to correct an administrative error in a minute or order of the Court.
The project was a joint one involving the Māori Land Court administration, LINZ and a sector sometimes forgotten in the literature on the project, the Māori Land Court judiciary.
