                        ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
                    (CASE NO. 1DSC-XX-XXXXXXX)

           ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
 (By: Recktenwald, C.J., McKenna, Eddins, Ginoza, and Devens, JJ.)

     Upon consideration of the petition for writ of mandamus

filed November 9, 2023, and the record, we do not construe the

record and evidence submitted to reflect bias nor an abuse of

discretion in the manner that the Respondent Judge conducted the

trial.   Petitioner has not demonstrated a clear and indisputable
right to relief.   Womble Bond Dickinson (US) LLP v. Kim, 153

Hawaiʻi 307, 319, 537 P.3d 1154, 1166 (2023).

     It is ordered that the petition is denied.

          DATED:   Honolulu, Hawaii, February 12, 2024.
