New Zealand law explained for everyone
This part of the law is about what happens if a prosecutor doesn’t file an indictment. An indictment is a formal document that accuses someone of a crime. However, this section of the law no longer exists. It was removed on 1 July 2013. This means that the rules about what happens if a prosecutor doesn’t file an indictment have changed, and you would need to look at other parts of the law to find out what the current rules are.
