In front of his whānau and senior members of the Taranaki bar, Te Wehi Wright added his name to what is believed to be the oldest register of roia, or lawyers, in Aotearoa. In charge of proceedings was Justice Christine Grice, who formally welcomed Wright into the legal profession, first in Māori, before she addressed him directly in English..... www.stuff.co.nz/national/107726483/legal-history-made-in-taranaki-with-admission-ceremony-conducted-in-te-reo-mori
