NOT FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST'S HAWAI'I REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER APPEAL FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE SECOND CIRCUIT
(CIVIL NO. 14-1-0713(2)) ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO DISMISS APPEAL
(By: Reifurth, Presiding Judge, Chan and Hiraoka, JJ.)
Upon consideration of the "Notice of Appellants' [sic] Marcelino Mendoza Aquino and Jeanette Donia Aquinos' [sic] Voluntary Dismissal Pursuant to HRAP Rule 42," filed February 28, 2019, by pro se Defendant-Appellant Marcelino Mendoza Acquino, individually and as trustee, and pro se Defendant-Appellee Jeanette Donia Aquino, individually and as trustee, which the court construes as a motion to dismiss the appeal by Marcelino Mendoza Aquino, the papers in support, the record, and there being no opposition, it appears that (1) Marcelino Aquino seeks to dismiss this docketed appeal; and (2) the requested relief is authorized by Hawai'i Rules of Appellate Procedure Rule 42(b).
The notice of appeal did not identify Jeanette Donia Aquino as an appellant, and she did not sign the notice of appeal. Therefore, the appeal and the instant motion are valid as to Marcelino Mendoza Aquino only. --------
Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion is granted, and the appeal is dismissed.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawai'i, March 19, 2019.
