O'CONNOR, Plaintiff-Appellant vs. NORBERT WONG, M.D.; MICHAEL MEAGHER, M.D.; RADIOLOGY ASSOCIATES, INC., a Hawai#i corporation; and EMERGENCY GROUP, INC., a Hawai#i corporation, Defendants-Appellees and THE QUEEN'S MEDICAL CENTER, a non-profit Hawai#i corporation; SUTTER HEALTH PACIFIC, a California Corporation for Non-Profit; JOHN DOES 1-10; JANE DOES 1-10; DOE PARTNERSHIPS 1-10; DOE CORPORATIONS 1-10; ROE NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS 1-10; and ROE GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES 1-10, Defendants APPEAL FROM THE FIRST CIRCUIT COURT (CIV. NO. 96-5171) ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL (By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, Ramil, and Acoba, JJ.) Upon review of the record, it appears that: (1) judgment pursuant to HRCP 58 has not been entered in Civil No. 96-5171; and thus, (2) this appeal is premature and we lack jurisdiction. See Jenkins v. Cades Schutte Fleming & Wright, 76 Hawai#i 115, 869 P.2d 1334 (1994). Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction. DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, August 27, 2001.
