                       ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
                      (CIV. NO. 88-0522-02)

          ORDER DENYING WITHOUT PREJUDICE PETITION FOR
                WRITS OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION
(By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Pollack, and Wilson, JJ.)

          Upon consideration of petitioners Felix Dacanay, as

personal representative of the Estate of Roger Roxas, and The

Golden Budha Corporation’s petition for writs of mandamus or

prohibition, filed on October 29, 2013, the documents attached

thereto and submitted in support thereof, and the record, it

appears that petitioners have failed to demonstrate that they do
not have alternative means of seeking the requested relief.

Accordingly,

          IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition for writs of

mandamus or prohibition is denied without prejudice.

          DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, May 1, 2014.
