ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
(ODC Case No. 16-O-073)
ORDER
(By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, and Wilson, JJ.,
and Intermediate Court of Appeals Associate Judge Hiraoka,
assigned by reason of vacancy)
Upon consideration of the March 11, 2021 motion filed
by Bradley Tamm, Chief Disciplinary Counsel at the Office of
Disciplinary Counsel, for discharge as Trustee over the legal
practice of attorney D. Gerald Falls due to incapacity, as
provided by Rule 2.20 of the Rules of the Supreme Court of the
State of Hawai#i, and the record in this matter, we conclude that
the funds in the client trust account maintained at Hawaii
National Bank, ending in x3326, have successfully escheated to
the State, pursuant to Hawai#i Revised Statutes Ch. 523A (2008),
and that nothing further remains for Trustee Tamm to do with
regards to this trusteeship. Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion is granted and
Tamm is discharged as Trustee in this matter. The clerk of the
court shall close these proceedings.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, March 15, 2021.
