BG INCORPORATED, a Hawai'i corporation,
Lienor-Appellee,

vs.

PF, THREE PARTNERS, @ Hawai'i limited partnership,
Respondent Appellant,

DOES 1-100, Respondents

APPEAL FROM THE SECOND CIRCUIT COURT

(eb. NO. 04-1-0018(3))
(oy: Moon, C.J.) Levineons Hakayanas Aeaba, and Duffy, 9.)
Upon review of the record, it appears that the appeal
of the May 25, 2005 order denying the motion to compel
arbitration is moot inasmuch as the application for a mechanic's
Lien was decided by the circuit court and the appeal of the May
25, 2005 order will afford appellant a remedy in name, but not an
adequate remedy in fact. See Assn. of Owners of Kukui Plaza v.
‘Swinerton & Walbera, 68 Haw. 98, 107, 705 P.24 28, 35 (1985);
Koolau Radiclioay, Inc, v. Queen's Medical Center, 73 Haw. 433,
444, 024 P.2d 1294, 1300 (1992).
It further appears that the appeal of the May 25, 2005,
order granting the application for a mechanic's lien is prenature

inasmuch as the order was not reduced to a separate judgment, as

required by HRCP 58. See Jenkins v. Cades Schutte Fleming &
Weight, 76 Hawai'l 115, 869 P.2d 1334 (1994) (an order that
resolves claims in a circuit court civil case is not appealable
unless the order is reduced to a separate judgment pursuant to
RCP 58). Therefore,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed.

Dated: Honolulu, Hawai'i, August 25, 2005.
