If you believe that the publication of a case involving yourself, or a family member, is breaching

a) the law or

b)a Court order or

c) is causing you extreme hardship

The remedy unfortunately lies with the original decision maker and not initially NZLII.

Contact the court, tribunal or authority that made the decision and talk with staff there about the procedure necessary to request a suppression order. Do mention that the decision is available on NZLII (and check to see if it is also available on the Ministry of Justice or decision generators website). The decision generator will contact us if they decide the decision needs to come down either temporarily or permanently and supply us with a revised decision if applicable.

Please be aware that each court and tribunal will have specific guidelines on the circumstances in which this will be done.
