NO. 26604



IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI`I




STATE OF HAWAI`I, Plaintiff-Appellee


vs.



VINCE WILLIAM RAZO, Defendant-Appellant




APPEAL FROM THE SECOND CIRCUIT COURT
(CR. NO. 03-1-0293)




ORDER
(By: Duffy, J. for the court (1))

Upon consideration of the motion for extension of time to file an application for a writ of certiorari, it appears that HRS § 602-59(c) (Supp. 2005), as amended by Act 149, 2006 Hawai`i Session Laws, does not authorize the appellate court to extend the ninety-day period for filing an application for a writ of certiorari. Therefore,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion for extension of time to file an application for a writ of certiorari is denied.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai`i, December 19, 2006.
