IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAIʻI ________________________________________________________________
DEXTER J. SMITH, Petitioner,
vs.
STATE OF HAWAIʻI, Respondent. ________________________________________________________________
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING (CASE NO. 1PR161000009)
ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS (By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Wilson, and Eddins, JJ.)
Upon consideration of the January 4, 2023 letter from
Dexter J. Smith, which has been filed with this court as a
petition for a writ of mandamus, we conclude Smith has failed to
demonstrate a clear and indisputable right to relief. See State
ex rel. Kaneshiro v. Huddy, 82 Hawaiʻi 188, 193, 921 P.2d 108,
113 (1996). Therefore,
It is ordered that the petition is denied. It is further ordered that the appellate clerk shall
serve a copy of the petition and this order on Judge Christine
Kuriyama.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawaii, January 13, 2023.
/s/ Mark E. Recktenwald
