            (1) The statement of jurisdiction and opening brief

were due on or before July 3, 2023, and August 1, 2023,

respectively;

            (2) Self-represented Petitioner-Appellant J.O. (JO)

failed to file either document, or request an extension of time;

            (3) On August 4, 2023, the appellate clerk entered a

default notice informing JO that the time for filing the

statement of jurisdiction and opening brief had expired, the

matter would be called to the court's attention on August 14,

2023, for appropriate action, which could include dismissal of

the appeal under Hawai i Rules of Appellate Procedure

Rules 12.1(e) and 30, and JO could request relief from default by

motion; and
