NOT FOR PUBLICATION IN WEST'S HAWAI I REPORTS AND PACIFIC REPORTER

Electronically Filed Intermediate Court of Appeals CAOT-XX-XXXXXXX 04-FEB-2025 08:07 AM Dkt. 7 ODSLJ NO. CAOT-XX-XXXXXXX

IN THE INTERMEDIATE COURT OF APPEALS OF THE STATE OF HAWAI I

ERIC STROEVE, Petitioner, v. STATE OF HAWAI I, Respondent

ORDER DISMISSING CASE (By: Leonard, Acting Chief Judge, Hiraoka and Guidry, JJ.)

Upon review of the record, the court finds that self- represented Defendant-Appellant Eric Stroeve's December 27, 2024 "Petition for Writ of Dismissal" does not notice an appeal from a judgment entered by the Circuit Court of the First Circuit in 1CPC-XX-XXXXXXX. Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) § 641-11 (2016).

Rather, it appears to seek affirmative relief in the nature of a writ of mandamus and/or writ of habeas corpus, which the Hawai i Supreme Court has exclusive, original jurisdiction to grant. HRS § 602-5(a)(3), (4) (2016).

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that case No. CAOT-24- 0000845 is dismissed without prejudice to seeking relief via petition to the Hawai i Supreme Court.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai i, February 4, 2025.
