ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

(By: Duffy, J. for the court’)

upon review of the Petitioner’s Motion for Reconsideration,

its appendices, and the record, it appears a judge has discretion

to determine whether bail bond continues after conviction. See
HRS § 804-6. Petitioner has not shown a flagrant and manifest
abuse of that discretion and may seek review by way of appeal.

See State v. Lo, 116 Hawai'i 23, 25-26, 169 P.3d 975, 977-976

(2007). Therefore,
IT 1S HERESY ORDERED, pursuant to Rule 21(c) of the Hawai'i

Rules of Appellate Procedure, that the application is denied.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai'i, December 30, 2008.
