NO. 24533

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI`I


STATE OF HAWAI`I, Plaintiff-Appellee

vs.

WALTER K.R. PUAOI, JR., Defendant-Appellant


APPEAL FROM THE SECOND CIRCUIT COURT
(CR. NO. 96-0023)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
(By: Moon, C.J., Levinson,
Nakayama, Ramil and Acoba, JJ.)

Upon review of the record, it appears that: (1) Appellant appeals the circuit court's August 15, 2001 order denying a motion for production of documents; (2) the appeal of the August 15, 2001 order, the Honorable Shackley F. Raffetto, presiding, is an appeal of a post-judgment order that is not authorized by HRS § 641-11; and thus, (3) we lack jurisdiction over this appeal. Therefore,

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

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai`i, November 30, 2001.
