Citation: N/A
Docket Number: 23455
State: Hawaii
Issuer: Hawaii Supreme Court
Date: September 21, 2000

NO. 23455 IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I RONALD L. DURETTE, Plaintiff-Appellant vs. ALOHA PLASTIC RECYCLING, INC., a Hawai#i corporation, Defendant-Appellee and RICHARD DORAN, HAROLD HAROUN, and THOMAS REED, Defendants APPEAL FROM THE SECOND CIRCUIT COURT (CIV. NO. 97-0519(3)) ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL (By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, Ramil, and Acoba, JJ.) Upon review of the record, it appears that: (1) the April 24, 2000 judgment, which purports to be the final judgment in Civil No. 97-0519, enters judgment only on the claims against defendant Aloha Plastics Recycling, Inc. and does not show finality as to the claims against the other defendants, as required by HRCP 58; see Jenkins v. Cades Schutte Fleming & Wright, 76 Hawai#i 115, 119-120, 869 P.2d 1334, 1339-39 (1994); and, thus, (2) this appeal is premature and we lack jurisdiction. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction. DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, September 21, 2000.
