APPEAL FROM THE FAMILY COURT OF THE SECOND CIRCUIT
(FC-D NO. 9221) ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION
()
Upon consideration of pro se Plaintiff-Appellant Doris Ann Tabion's (Appellant) letter, filed February 25, 2016, which the court construes as a motion for reconsideration of the December 18, 2015 order dismissing the appeal pursuant to Hawai'i Rules of Appellate Procedure (HRAP) Rule 30 (Motion), the papers in support, and the record, it appears that: (1) HRAP Rule 40(a) requires a motion for reconsideration to be filed within ten days after filing of the dispositional order, "unless by special leave additional time is granted during such period by a judge or justice of the appellate court involved[;]" (2) a motion for reconsideration of the December 18, 2015 order was due on or before December 28, 2015; and (3) Appellant did not obtain an extension to file a motion for reconsideration before the ten-day deadline expired.
Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Motion is denied as untimely.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawai'i, March 2, 2016.
