APPEAL FROM THE SECOND CIRCUIT COURT

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

(By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama,

Ramil, and Acoba, JJ.)

Upon review of the record, it appears that: (1) the claims in consolidated Civil Nos. 93-0308 and 98-0863 were finally resolved by orders entered on March 20, 2000, April 14, 2000 and May 19, 2000, but a final judgment resolving all claims of all the parties has not been entered in accordance with HRCP 58; and thus, (2) this appeal is premature and we lack jurisdiction. See Jenkins v. Cades Schutte Fleming & Wright, 76 Hawaii 115, 869 P.2d 1334 (1994). Therefore,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawaii, August 9, 2000
