Overview: In multi-party litigation, the trial court dismissed certain claims pursuant to stipulations that were not signed by all parties. The dismissal orders entered pursuant to Haw. R. Civ.

View this case - free  

Overview: Although a circuit court certified its finding of facts, conclusions of law, and order for appeal under Haw. R. Civ. P. 54(b), the circuit court failed to reduce the order to a separate judgment as required by Haw. Rev. Stat. § 641-1(a) (Supp. 2006) and Haw. R. Civ. P. 54(b) and 58. Thus, the court lacked jurisdiction and dismissed the appeal.
