- Citation
- [2017] NZHC 499
- Court
- High Court
The Family Court's orders under the Protection of Personal and Property Rights Act 1998 (including s10) lawfully authorised Mrs N's placement in the rest home; habeas corpus is not the proper remedy for complaints about care or visitor conditions which must be addressed through the Act's review and appeal mechanisms; accordingly the habeas corpus application must be dismissed.
