Plaintiff Janice K. M. Chung Keliihananui's letter and "brief" dated
August 7, 2009 were received and filed in the
supreme court on September 14, 2009 and are deemed a motion for

additional time is granted during such period by a judge or
justice of the appellate court involved."). Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY
ORDERED that the motion for reconsideration is dismissed as untimely.
