The document was filed as a petition. Upon consideration of the submission and the record, this court lacks jurisdiction to provide petitioner the requested relief. See HRS § 602-5(a). Accordingly, It is ordered that the petition is dismissed. It is further ordered that the clerk of the appellate court shall process the petition without payment of the filing fees.
