APPEAL FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE THIRD CIRCUIT
(CIVIL NO. 3CC19100153K)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
(By: Leonard, Acting Chief Judge, Hiraoka, and Wadsworth, JJ.)

Upon review of the record, it appears that:
(1) On March 6, 2025, self-represented Defendant-
Appellant Alan Brooks Bram (Bram) filed a notice of appeal.
(2) The record on appeal was due on or before
May 5, 2025, see Hawai i Rules of Appellate Procedure (HRAP)
Rule 11(b)(1), but was not filed because Bram failed to pay the
filing fees or obtain a fee waiver.
(3) On May 8, 2025, the appellate clerk entered a
default of the record on appeal, informing Bram that the time to
docket the record on appeal had expired, Bram had not paid the
filing fees, the record on appeal cannot be prepared and filed
without full payment of all fees or an order allowing Bram to
proceed on appeal in forma pauperis, the matter would be brought
to the court's attention on May 19, 2025 for action that may

include dismissal of the appeal, and Bram could seek relief from
default by motion.
(4) Bram has not taken any further action in this
appeal. An appeal may be dismissed where the record on appeal
has not been prepared because the appellant failed to pay the
required fees or obtain an order allowing the appellant to
proceed in forma pauperis. HRAP Rule 11(b)(2), (c)(2).
Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the appeal is
dismissed.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawai i, June 25, 2025.
