SCAD-XX-XXXXXXX
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAIʻI
IN RE: WESLEY Y.S. CHANG (Deceased) Bar. No. 1292
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING (ODC #18-0249)
ORDER (By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Wilson, and Eddins, JJ.)
Upon consideration of the report, submitted on June 24,
2021 by Bradley Tamm of the Office of Disciplinary Counsel (ODC),
as Trustee, pursuant to Rule 2.20 of the Rules of the Supreme
Court of the State of Hawaiʻi (RSCH), over the solo legal
practice of deceased attorney Wesley Y.S. Chang, and the record
in this matter, we conclude that nothing further remains for
Trustee Tamm to do in this trusteeship, and that the remaining
funds in Chang’s former client trust account at Bank of Hawaii,
ending in x4207, will, on June 18, 2023, be ripe for a motion
that they be declared abandoned and to escheat to the state,
pursuant to HRS Ch. 523A. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the final report is approved,
and that Tamm is discharged from his duties as Trustee in this
matter.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Trustee Administrator at
ODC shall hold the funds in the Bank of Hawaii account x4207
until June 18, 2023, at which time this court will entertain a
motion that any remaining funds therein be declared abandoned and
that they escheat to the state.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, June 28, 2021.
