IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I _________________________________________________________________

RICHARD BLAISDELL, Petitioner/Plaintiff-Appellant,

v.

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, Respondent/Defendant-Appellee. _________________________________________________________________

CERTIORARI TO THE INTERMEDIATE COURT OF APPEALS (CAAP-14-0001218; CIV. NO. 11-1-2008-09)

ORDER DISMISSING APPLICATION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI (By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Pollack, and Wilson, JJ.)

Upon consideration of Petitioner/Petitioner-Appellant

Richard Blaisdell’s Application for Writ of Certiorari filed on

June 8, 2015, and the record, it appears that Blaisdell seeks

certiorari review of an order denying his motion for

reconsideration, which is not allowed under Hawai#i Revised

Statutes (“HRS”) § 602-59. See HRS § 602-59(a) (“After issuance

of the intermediate appellate court’s judgment or dismissal

order, a party may seek review of the intermediate appellate

court’s decision and judgment or dismissal order only by application to the supreme court for a writ of certiorari

. . . .”) (emphasis added). Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the application for writ of

certiorari is dismissed.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, July 23, 2015.
