Heading: Concrete Curbing and Boundary Pins

Text: The district court also found that Leander had failed to prove by clear and convincing evidence that the LeMays violated the Injunction by removing the concrete curbing and boundary pins. The record reflects that Leander relied solely upon his own testimony and affidavit to contradict the LeMays' affidavit, which denied such conduct. This court has long observed that it is within the province of the trier of fact to weigh the evidence and to assess the credibility of the witnesses, and this court will refrain from interfering in those determinations. See State v. Eastman, 81 Hawai`i 131, 139, 913 P.2d 57, 65 (1996). In light of the evidence in the record, we hold that the district court did not abuse its discretion in concluding that Leander's testimony and affidavit were insufficient to prove by clear and convincing evidence that the LeMays had removed the concrete curbing and boundary pins from Leander's property. Because Leander has failed to establish a violation of the Injunction as required by the second prong of Allied Vision, we affirm the district court's judgment with respect to the concrete curbing and boundary pins.
