1 NO. 23428 IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I LLEWELLYN K. WAILEHUA, JR., Plaintiff-Appellant and SONELAU LUPESOLIAI, et al., Plaintiffs vs. CORRECTIONS CORPORATION OF AMERICA; et al., Defendants-Appellees APPEAL FROM THE FIRST CIRCUIT COURT (CIV. NO. 99-1210) ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL (By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, Ramil, and Acoba, JJ.) Upon review of the record, it appears that: (1) final judgment has not been entered in Civil No. 99-1210; (2) the appeal of the decision denying the motion for courtesy copies is an appeal of an interlocutory decision for which leave to take an interlocutory appeal was not granted by the circuit court pursuant to HRS § 641-1(b); and, thus, (3) this appeal is premature and we lack jurisdiction. Therefore, 2 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction. DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, August 28, 2000.
