(By: Moon, C.J., Nakayama, A§§§§%§Duffy, and Recktenwald, JJ.} Upon consideration of petitioner Michael C. Tierney's
petition for a writ of mandamus, it appears that petitioner fails to present clear and certain claims for relief and therefore, petitioner is not entitled to mandamus relief. §§e lg_§e Disciplinary Bd. Of Hawaii Supreme Court, 9l Hawafi 363, 368,
984 P.2d 688, 693 (l999) (Mandamus relief is available to compel an official to perform a duty allegedly owed to an individual only if the individual’s claim is clear and certain, the official's duty is ministerial and so plainly prescribed as to be free from doubt, and no other remedy is available.).
Accordingly, IT lS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition for a writ of
mandamus is denied. DATED: Honolulu, Hawafi, January 12, 2010_
