Historically, most succession applications were heard by a Māori Land Court judge. Now, if your succession 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).
If your mediation is successful but the judge is not satisfied that the issues were resolved in accordance with the law and the relevant tikanga of your hapū or iwi, you may have to return to mediation to ensure we're meeting these requirements.
