         CERTIORARI TO THE INTERMEDIATE COURT OF APPEALS
              (CAAP-15-0000254; CIV. NO. 10-1-0414)

       ORDER DISMISSING APPLICATION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI
 (By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Pollack, and Wilson, JJ.)

          On August 3, 2015, petitioner/defendant-appellant

Marcelo Magno Lopez, Jr. (“Lopez”) filed an application for writ

of certiorari to review the Intermediate Court of Appeals’ May

19, 2015 order dismissing his appeal.     The application for writ

of certiorari was initially due on June 18, 2015.      See HRS § 602-
59(c) (Supp. 2014); HRAP Rule 40.1(a)(1).   Lopez, however, timely

requested and received an extension of time to file the

application for writ of certiorari, thereby extending the

deadline for filing the application for writ of certiorari an

additional thirty days, to July 20, 2015.   See HRS § 602-59(c);

HRAP Rule 40.1(a)(3); HRAP Rule 26(a).   Lopez filed his

application for writ of certiorari on August 3, 2015.     The

application for writ of certiorari is untimely, and this court

lacks appellate jurisdiction.   Accordingly,

          IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the application for writ of

certiorari is dismissed.

          DATED:   Honolulu, Hawai#i, September 15, 2015.
