During the Level 4 lockdown, like the rest of New Zealanders, all Māori Land Court staff were required to work from home. However, the reality was that some of our Māori Land Court staff were ill-equipped to do this due to both a lack of resources, and a lack of access to court records.
I went on to discover however that at the time those succession applications were made, various Māori land interests had not been identified by the Court and were not included in the 1967 orders.
In those days Māori lawyers, let alone Māori women lawyers, were thin on the ground. Māori judges were definitely a scarce commodity, however I spent a couple of years practising in Henderson when Judge Mick Brown was still sitting as a judge.
