- High Court
The appeal was dismissed because established authority holds that claims of Māori sovereignty do not negate the applicability of Acts of Parliament and are not justiciable in general courts; therefore the District Court had jurisdiction and the appellant's conviction under the Land Transport Act 1998 must stand.
