Gaoiran "was directed to the court's service center to file the writ of possession and judgment for possession" and "[t]o date, Plaintiff has not submitted a writ of possession and/or judgment for possession for entry by the court." The district court also stated "[o]nce jurisdiction is vested in this court, the matter should be dismissed pursuant to Rules 12 and/or 29 of the Rules of the District Courts of the State of Hawai#i."
