upon consideration of the petition for a writ of

support and the record, it appears that a writ of prohibition is
not issuable under the authority of Peters v. Jamieson, 48 Haw.
247, 397 P.2d S75 (1964) inasmuch as petitioner is not prohibited
from appealing from the final judgment entered in Civil

No. 03+1-2372. The actions of the respondent judge are
reviewable on appeal from the final judgment entered in Civil

No, 03-1-2372, petitioner will have a remedy by way of appeal

from the final judgment and a writ of prohibition is not intended

to take the place of an appeal. Therefore,
17 15 HERESY ORDERED that the petition for a urit of
prohibition is denied without prejudice to any remedy petitioner
may have by way of appeal.
