Māori Land Court decision

What it is

A decision of the Māori Land Court, recorded in one of its minute books.

How to cite it

Cited under r 3.5. The minute book is named twice, in full and then as a short citation, because r 3.5.5(b) treats the short form alone as ambiguous.

Example citation

Pacey v Adlam – Matata Parish 39A 2B 2A (2017) 178 Waiariki MB 32 (178 WAR 32).
