2021 Hawaii Revised Statutes|Title 37. Hawaii Penal Code|708. Offenses Against Property Rights|708-8104 Possession of unauthorized credit card machinery or incomplete cards.

  §708-8104 Possession of unauthorized credit card machinery or incomplete cards. (1) A person other than the cardholder possessing an incomplete credit card, with intent to complete it without the consent of the issuer or a person possessing, with knowledge of its character, machinery, plates, or any other contrivance designed to reproduce instruments purporting to be the credit cards of the issuer who has not consented to the preparation of such credit cards, commits the offense of possession of unauthorized credit card machinery or incomplete cards.  A credit card is incomplete if part of the matter other than the signature of the cardholder, which an issuer requires to appear on the credit card, before it can be used by a cardholder, has not yet been stamped, embossed, imprinted, or written on it.  If a person other than the cardholder or issuer possesses two or more incomplete credit cards, it is prima facie evidence that the person intended to complete them without the consent of the owner.  (2) Possession of unauthorized credit card machinery or incomplete cards is a class C felony. [L 1986, c 314, pt of §61]
HI Rev Stat § 708-8105 (2021)
2021 Hawaii Revised Statutes|Title 37. Hawaii Penal Code|708. Offenses Against Property Rights|708-8105 Credit card lists prohibited; penalty.

  §708-8105 Credit card lists prohibited; penalty. (1) It is unlawful for any person, business, corporation, partnership, or other agency to make available, lend, donate, or sell any list or portion of a list of any credit cardholders and their addresses and account numbers to any third party without the express written permission of the issuer and the cardholders; except that a credit card issuer may make a list of its cardholders, including names, addresses, and account numbers, available, without the permission of the cardholders, to a third party pursuant to a contract, if the contract contains language requiring the third party to bind through contract each of its subcontractors by including language prohibiting the divulging of any part of the list for any purpose by the subcontractors except to fulfill and service orders pursuant to the contract between the credit card issuer and the authorized third party.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this section, a "consumer reporting agency", as that term is defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Public Law No. 91-508, may provide lists of credit account names, addresses, and account numbers to third parties pursuant to that Act. Nothing in this section shall make unlawful or otherwise prohibit the transmittal of any such information to or from a "consumer reporting agency", as that term is defined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, or a "debt collector", as that term is defined in the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Public Law No. 95-109. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, it is lawful for any corporation to make available, lend, donate, or sell any list or portion of a list of any credit cardholders and their addresses and account numbers to a subsidiary or the parent corporation of such corporation or to another subsidiary of the common parent corporation.  (2) Violation of this section is a misdemeanor. [L 1986, c 314, pt of §61]
HI Rev Stat § 708-8106 (2021)
2021 Hawaii Revised Statutes|Title 37. Hawaii Penal Code|708. Offenses Against Property Rights|708-8106 Defenses not available.

  §708-8106 Defenses not available. In any prosecution for violation of this part, the prosecution is not required to establish and it is no defense:  (1) That a person other than the defendant who violated this part has not been convicted, apprehended, or identified; or  (2) That some of the acts constituting the offense did not occur in this State or were not a crime or element of a crime where they did occur. [L 1986, c 314, pt of §61] COMMENTARY ON § §708-8100 TO 708-8106  Act 314, Session Laws 1986, incorporated into the Code the credit card offenses previously included under chapter 851. Apart from this change, credit card offense penalties were made more severe in recognition of the increase in the criminal abuse of credit cards. Also, Act 314 barred the disclosure of credit cardholder lists, except in limited circumstances, because the procurement from stores and credit bureaus of those lists increases the likelihood of credit card fraud and theft. Senate Standing Committee Report No. 820-86, Conference Committee Report No. 51-86.  Act 55, Session Laws 1988, amended §708-8100 by lowering the value of money, goods, and services, required as an element of credit card fraud in the class C felony category, from $500 to $300. This amendment makes this section uniform with similar statutory crimes. House Standing Committee Report No. 1173-88.  Act 287, Session Laws 1993, added §708-8100.5 to provide criminal sanctions for the fraudulent encoding of a credit card. The legislature found that criminal elements are now capable of changing the magnetic encoding on a credit card to match a usable code and then use the card without detection, resulting in tremendous potential loss to the State's commerce. The legislature further found that because this type of crime is more serious and sophisticated than simple credit card fraud or simple theft and the potential for economic loss is so great, classification of this offense as a class B felony is appropriate. Conference Committee Report No. 102.  Act 230, Session Laws 2006, amended §708-8100(2) to provide that each separate use of a stolen credit card that exceeds $300 can be charged as a separate incident. House Standing Committee Report No. 665-06.

HI Rev Stat § 709-900 (2021)
2021 Hawaii Revised Statutes|Title 37. Hawaii Penal Code|709. Offenses Against the Family and Against Incompetents|709-900 Illegally marrying. §709-900 Commentary:

  §709-900 Illegally marrying. (1) A person commits the offense of illegally marrying if the person intentionally marries or purports to marry, knowing that the person is legally ineligible to do so.  (2) Illegally marrying is a petty misdemeanor. [L 1972, c 9, pt of §1; gen ch 1993] COMMENTARY ON §709-900  This section is intended to serve two purposes: (1) to protect a party to a purported marriage from imposition and deception, and (2) to reinforce the statute setting forth the minimal requirements for valid marriage. The Code imposes its lowest form of criminal liability for intentionally marrying or purporting to marry when the actor knows the actor is ineligible to do so. Except to the extent that the previous offense relating to incest1 covered some aspects of this conduct, this offense represents an addition to Hawaii law. __________  §709-900 Commentary: 1. See H.R.S. §768-41 which makes it an offense to "marry" or engage in sexual intercourse with any person with whom marriage is prohibited by consanguinity or affinity. See also H.R.S. §572-1.
