HRS § 663-8.9
Defendants' motion for summary judgment on all negligent infliction of emotional distress claims granted, where plaintiffs-intervenors had not even alleged physical injury or a diagnosed illness. 535 F. Supp. 2d 1149. Because a corpse is neither "property" nor a "material object" for purposes of this section, this section does not apply to negligent infliction of emotional distress claims arising from the negligent mishandling of a corpse.96 Haw. 147,28 P.3d 982.
