Document:
NO. 24397 IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I LLEWELLYN K. WAILEHUA, JR., Plaintiff-Appellant vs. CORRECTIONS CORPORATION OF AMERICA (CCA); LINDA COOPER, Vice-President Legal Affairs of CCA; JOE HOPPER, Divisions Director of CCA; LES HARMON; FRANK PRICE, Property Supervisor of Diamondback Correctional Facility (DCF); TED SAKAI, Director, Department of Public Safety (DPS); DAVID DELGADO, Unit Manager for DCF; SHARI KIMOTO, Contract Monitor for DPS; UNKNOWN TRANSPORTATION COMPANY (when paroling company responsible for transporting inmates property), Defendants APPEAL FROM THE FIRST CIRCUIT COURT (CIV. NO. 01-1-1244) ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL (By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, Ramil, and Acoba, JJ.) Upon review of the record, it appears that final judgment has not been entered in Civil No. 01-1-1244. The appeal of the July 2, 2001 order denying the requests for relief is an appeal of an interlocutory order that was not certified for interlocutory appeal. Therefore, this appeal is premature and we lack jurisdiction. See HRS § 641-1(a). Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction. DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, December 12, 2001.
