ORDER

a, Acoba, and Duffy, JJ.)

 

(By: Moon, C.J., Levinson,
Upon consideration of Anthony Regan‘s “notice and
request for relief” dated May 3, 2007, which is deemed a petition
for a writ of habeas corpus, it appears that habeas corpus relief
is available to petitioner in the circuit court and petitioner
presents no special reason for invoking the supreme court's
original jurisdiction. See ili v. Chang, 57 Haw. 511, 512, 557

P.2d 787, 788 (1976). Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the clerk of the appellate

court shall file the May 3, 2007 “notice and request for relief”
as a petition for a writ of habeas corpus without payment of the

 

filing fee.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the petition for a writ of

habeas corpus is denied without prejudice to seeking habeas

corpus relief in the circuit court.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawas't, May 16, 2007.
