Kua whakamutua, kua aukatia rānei Stopped or closed roads A stopped or closed road is no longer needed for the purpose it was created.
This process is less formal and may save you time and travel costs, as you won't have to attend a formal court sitting.
The Court may, on considering your notification, arrange for the application to be set down for a formal hearing if the application has yet to be determined or for a rehearing if the application has already been determined.
The main priorities for the Court now are first, to remedy errors in the lists, using s 86 of TTWMA, and second, to update the list of successors based on previous and new evidence, the latter of which requires hearings to be held so evidence can be heard. An application form based on the existing form for successions has been modified for the purposes of SILNA determinations, and individual applications are linked to a central file to ensure consistency.
We want to hear about your experience using Pātaka Whenua and your views on how it's working for you.
That said, if the replacement lawyer is within the same firm or Chambers as the departing lawyer, then no further application is required, unless directed by the Court.
