I'm going to ignore this thread until the full story comes out which I expect to be rather a while

Yes, @308, we can wait all we want to. NZ family courts work like the UK's secret anti terror courts - the Press is not allowed in.

Anyway he is safely pronounced guilty by reason of his former gang associates. Ex-cop, likely at least ex-wifebeater.

Agreed Who F***** Knows?

As we have seen time and time again it's hard to believe anything the press say these days and then both the police and family courts (if that's where this came from) are known to make some balls ups.

Was told today the family court is involved, all sorts of under handed shit starts there so wouldn't be super quick to take sides.

Oh the stories I could tell about the inequities handed out by the family court. I was one of the first to be ordered to pay child support when it was introduced. I had a joint custody, paid all schooling, health insurance, clothing and footwear for the kids and still got slammed with paying the ex a full amount of child support even though half of every year they lived with and were fed by me. All came to an end for me over twenty years ago so I have no axe to grind but I am sure the inequities will continue to prevail against those with a nutsack who appear before the family court.

An 'axe to grind' and 'nutsack' in the same sentence, brings me out in a cold sweat.

Wouldn't be the first time I can think of a vindictive family member doing this to a gun owner for spite/personal gain. Can actually think of three individual cases off the very top of my head.

If the Courts granted a Protection Order then they must have concerns.
He can challenge it and if its proven unfounded, then it will get dismissed. And he gets his firearms back, depending on circumstances of what happened when they tried to seize them.

Judges always go on the side of caution, then Police execute the direction of the courts which is to seize firearms as you cannot hold them without the courts approval. You can have firearms and have a protection order if the court approves. Not very common, but it has been done. Especially if the only form of income is provided by having to have firearms, such as a gunsmith, dealer and so forth.

But with the media, how do we actually know what happened or what the actual circumstances are.

I'm sure he will appeal the Protection Order and it will all come out when both sides are heard.

Only good thing about this is I can look the wife in the eyes and honestly say I don't have that many firearms....yet

He sounded coherent and reasonable on the Newstalk.ZB clip they put on the NZ Herald page.

If someone can give a link to his whole call to Newstalk.ZB that would be great -- I could not find it.
