WHAT IS THIS FORM FOR?...
Use this form to apply to the Court for a partition of Māori Land or the combined partition of Māori and General Land
to separate out owner’s shares into new land titles.
It gives an inaccurate impression of
how the Act operates and fails to explain in any reasoned way how the Act inhibits
(or enhances) Māori land owners’ aspirations.

Rule 4.2,...
In a similar way to how the various Land Title Offices managed the registration of European land
interests, district registry offices of the Māori Land Court managed the aggregation of
information about title reconstruction and improvement activities differently.
The failure to do so is a breach of the duty to be active.
3. While the Trust Land and Trust Property is to be held and used for the benefit of the Beneficial
Owners, the Beneficial Owners are not the legal owners and they have no right (legal or
otherwise) to instruct the Trustees how to manage and deal with Trust Land and Trust Property.
