The longest running property claim in the country - the Nelson Tenths - heads to back to the High Court today in an effort to solve the decades-old dispute.
The case refers to around 15,000 acres at Te Tauihu at the top of the South Island, that the New Zealand Company failed to reserve for the Māori customary landowners in the 1840s.
In 2017, the Supreme Court ruled that the Crown had a legal duty to reserve the customary Tenths and the parties are now heading back to court to determine the extent of the breaches and the remedies.
