NO. 28338



IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI`I





DONNA EDWARDS MIZUKAMI, nka DONNA EDWARDS,
Plaintiff-Appellee

vs.


GLENN KIYOHIKO MIZUKAMI, Defendant-Appellant




ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
(FC-D NO. 90-4214)





ORDER
(By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, Acoba, and Duffy, JJ.)

Upon consideration of movant Glenn Mizukami's "motion for order of stay or to preserve status quo of November 22, 2006 order [pending] appeal," the papers in support and the record, it appears that movant seeks, pursuant to HFCR 62(g), a stay from this court of the family court's November 22, 2006 order. HFCR 62(g) recognizes this court's power under HRS § 602-5(6) (Supp. 2005) to preserve the status quo in a restraining order case pending before this court. The November 22, 2006 order is not a restraining order and an appeal of the November 22, 2006 order is not pending before this court. Therefore,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this original proceeding is dismissed. The dismissal is without prejudice to seeking a stay of the November 22, 2006 order with the intermediate court of appeals pursuant to HRAP 8 upon appeal of the November 22, 2006 order.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai`i, January 16, 2007.
