CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU, MUFI HANNEMAN!, Mayor,
and ERIC TAKAMURA, Director, Department of Environmental
Services, City and County of Honolulu (2004-027),

Employer-Appellants

APPEAL FROM THE FIRST CIRCUIT COURT
(S.P. NO. 04-1-0475)

‘ORDER
(By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, Acoba, and Duffy, JJ.)

Upon consideration of Appellee United Public Workers’
motion to dismiss the appeal of Employer-Appellant City and
County of Honolulu for lack of jurisdiction, the papers in
support and opposition, and the records and files herein, it

(1) Appellant is appealing from a circuit court

 

appears that:
order granting a motion for provisional remedies pursuant to HRS
§ 658-8 (Supp. 2004) and an order denying a motion to vacate the

order granting provisional remedies; (2) the right to appeal is

purely statutory and exists only when given by some

constitutional and statutory provision. Chambers v, Leavey,

2 pursuant to Mawal'l Rules of Appellate Procedure Rule 43{c) (2004),
Mayor Mufi Hlannonan and Director Eric Takemura were substituted as parties to
the instant appeal

oan
60 Haw. 52, 57, 587 P.2d 807, 810 (1978); (3) the circuit court
did not enter a final judgment in the underlying casey (4) HRS
$§ 658A-28 governs appeals in cases brought pursuant to HRS
chapter 658A, and the orders being appealed in the instant case
do not fall within that group of orders set forth in HRS $ 658A-
26 from which an appeal may be taken; (5) the underlying circuit
court proceeding was not brought pursuant to HRS chapter 380;
thus, HRS § 380-10, which allows appeals in cases brought
pursuant to HRS chapter 380, is inapplicable; (6) Association of
Owners of Kukui Plaza v. Swinerton & Walberg Co, 68 Haw. 98, 705
P.2d 28 (1985) is inapplicable. therefore,

IT 1S HEREBY ORDERED that the motion to dismiss is
granted, and this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate
jurisdiction.
