ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION (By: Recktenwald, C.J., McKenna, Eddins, Ginoza, and Devens, JJ.)

On December 29, 2024, Plaintiffs filed an “Opposition to Judgment Pursuant to Constitution of the State of Hawaii, Article I Section I” and a “Layman Executive Summary.” The deadline to timely file a motion for reconsideration from this court’s December 20, 2024 Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law, and Judgment was December 30, 2024. See Hawaiʻi Rules of Appellate Procedure (HRAP) Rule 40(a) (eff. 2000). We construe both documents filed on December 29, 2024, collectively as a motion for reconsideration.

Upon consideration of the motion for reconsideration filed on December 29, 2024, and the record, this court has not overlooked or misapprehended points of law or fact. See HRAP Rule 40(b).

It is ordered that the motion is denied.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, January 7, 2025.
