IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I
JOHN WAGNER, Petitioner,
vs.
ATTORNEY ROBERT KIM, DEPUTY PROSECUTING ATTORNEY LINDA WALTON, THE HONORABLE ELIZABETH STRANCE, CIRCUIT COURT OF THE THIRD CIRCUIT, Respondents.
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING (CR. No. 98-227K)
ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS (By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, Acoba, McKenna, and Pollack, JJ.)
Upon consideration of petitioner John Wagner’s petition
for a writ of mandamus, filed May 30, 2013, and the record, it
appears that petitioner has alternative means to seek relief and,
therefore, is not entitled to a writ of mandamus. See Kema v.
Gaddis, 91 Hawai#i 200, 204, 982 P.2d 334, 338 (1999) (a writ of
mandamus is an extraordinary remedy that will not issue unless
the petitioner demonstrates a clear and indisputable right to
relief and a lack of alternative means to redress adequately the
alleged wrong or obtain the requested action). Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the clerk of the appellate
court shall process the petition for a writ of mandamus without
payment of the filing fee.
IT IS HEREBY FURTHER ORDERED that the petition for a
writ of mandamus is denied.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, June 26, 2013.
