APPEAL FROM THE FIRST CIRCUIT COURT (CIV. NO. 95-3848)
MOON, C.J., LEVINSON, NAKAYAMA, RAMIL, and ACOBA, JJ.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Upon review of the record, it appears that: (1) the circuit court's November 29, 2000 judgment, the Honorable Gary W. B. Chang, presiding, which purports to be the final judgment on the cross-claims of James Cecile, Inc., does not identify the cross-claims for which the judgment of $163,509.20 is entered against the cross-claim defendants and does not enter judgment on the cross-claims that were resolved against James Cecile, Inc. and on the cross-claims that were dismissed, as required by HRCP 58; see Jenkins v. Cades Schutte Fleming Wright, 76 Haw. 115, 119-20, 869 P.2d 1334, 1339-39 (1994) (In a multiple claim, multiple party circuit court case, a judgment that purports to be the final judgment is not appealable unless the judgment identifies the claims for which the judgment is entered and on its face, shows finality as to all claims against all the parties. "A statement that declares `there are no other outstanding claims' is not a judgment."); and thus, (2) this appeal is premature and we lack jurisdiction. Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction.
