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

Upon consideration of petitioner Richard Rapozo’ s
petition for a writ of mandamus, it appears that petitioner fails
to demonstrate that the circuit court is required to provide
petitioner with the legal resources he seeks.

petitioner is not entitied to mandamus relief.
Gaddis, $1 Hawai'i 200,

‘Therefore,

See Kema v.

204, 982 P.2d 334, 338 (1999) (A writ of
mandamus is an extraordinary remedy that will not issue unless
the petitioner demonstrates 2

# clear and indisputable right to

relief and a lack of alternative means to redress adequately the
alleged wrong or obtain the requested action.). Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition for a writ of

mandamus is denied. The denial is without prejudice to

petitioner seeking relief from the Department of Public Safety.
