Electronically Filed Supreme Court SCPW-13-0001127 23-JAN-2013 02:06 PM SCPW-13-0001127 IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I

STATE OF HAWAI#I, Respondent, vs. CHRIS SLAVICK, Petitioner.

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING ORDER DENYING WITHOUT PREJUDICE MOTION FOR HABEAS CORPUS (By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, Acoba, McKenna, and Pollack, JJ.)

Upon consideration of petitioner Christopher Lee Slavick’s “Motion for Habeas Corpus”, which was filed on January 2, 2013, the document attached thereto and submitted in support thereof, and the record, it appears that habeas corpus relief is available to petitioner in the circuit court and petitioner presents no special reason for invoking the supreme court’s original jurisdiction. See Oili v. Chang, 57 Haw. 411, 412, 557 P.2d 787, 788 (1976). Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion for habeas corpus is denied without prejudice to seeking habeas corpus relief in the circuit court pursuant to HRS § 660-3 (1993).

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, January 23, 2013. /s/ Mark E. Recktenwald /s/ Paula A. Nakayama /s/ Simeon R. Acoba, Jr. /s/ Sabrina S. McKenna /s/ Richard W. Pollack
