---

STATE OF HAWAI‘I, Respondent/Plaintiff-Appellee,

vs.

CHRISTOPHER GRINDLING, Petitioner/Defendant-Appellant.

---

CERTIORARI TO THE INTERMEDIATE COURT OF APPEALS

(CR. NO. 07-1-0533)

ORDER DISMISSING APPLICATION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI

(By: Moon, C.J., for the court ⁽¹⁾)

Petitioner/defendant-appellant Christopher Grindling's "motion for certiorari," filed on July 31, 2009, is deemed an application for a writ of certiorari to review the July 22, 2009 order of the intermediate court of appeals. The July 22, 2009 order is not reviewable by the supreme court by application for a writ of certiorari. See HRS § 602-59(a) (Supp. 2008). Therefore,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the application for a writ of certiorari is dismissed.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the "motion for leave from certiorari to allow lower court to reconsider," filed on August 4, 2009, is also dismissed.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai‘i, August 27, 2009.
