KK, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. RK, Defendant-Appellee


NOT FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST'S HAWAI'I REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER

APPEAL FROM THE FAMILY COURT OF THE THIRD CIRCUIT (CASE NO. 3FDV-22-0000573)

Leonard, Presiding Judge, Nakasone and McCullen, JJ.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION

Upon review of the record, this court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal because the Notice of Appeal, filed February 9, 2023, seeks to appeal from an Order Dismissing Divorce (Order), entered by the Family Court of the Third Circuit on December 21, 2022, but the Notice of Appeal was filed more than thirty days after the Order, and the deadline to appeal was not tolled or extended. The Notice of Appeal is therefore untimely. See Hawaii Rules of Appellate Procedure (HRAP) Rule 4(a)(1); Grattafiori v. State, 79 Hawaii 10, 13, 897 P.2d 937, 940 (1995) ("As a general rule, compliance with the requirement of the timely filing of a notice of appeal is jurisdictional, . . . and we must dismiss an appeal on our motion if we lack jurisdiction.")(citations &internal quotation marks omitted); HRAP Rule 26(b) ("[N]o court or judge or justice is authorized to change the jurisdictional requirements contained in Rule 4 of these rules.").

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
