IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAIʻI ________________________________________________________________
ROBERT H. HARDIN, JR., Petitioner,
vs.
THE HONORABLE ANNALISA M. BERNARD LEE, Judge of the District Court of the Second Circuit, State of Hawaiʻi, Respondent Judge,

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING (CASE NO. 2DSC-XX-XXXXXXX)
ORDER DISMISSING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS WITH PREJUDICE (By: McKenna, Acting C.J., Eddins, Ginoza, and Devens, JJ., and Circuit Judge Johnson, assigned by reason of vacancy)
A petition for writ of mandamus was filed in this case on
November 18, 2025. Petitioner subsequently filed a notice of
dismissal on December 8, 2025, that requests dismissal of the
petition for writ of mandamus. Based on the record, we construe
the December 8, 2025 notice as a motion to dismiss and grant the
motion. It is ordered that the petition is dismissed with
prejudice.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawaii, February 13, 2026.
