JANICE K. M. CHUNG KELI'IHANANUI, Petitioner,
vs.
GENE EVANS and BRUCE KAM, Respondents.
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
ORDER
(By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, Acoba and Duffy, JJ.
and Circuit Judge Chang, assigned by reason of vacancy)
Upon review of the complaints filed in the supreme
court by complainant Janice K. M. Chung Keli'ihananui, it appears
that we lack jurisdiction to consider complainant’s claims of
cruel and unusual punishment. See HRS § 602-5 (Supp. 2009).
Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the complaints are dismissed.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawai'i, January 10, 2011.
