IN THE INTERMEDIATE COURT OF APPEALS

OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I

BASILIA C. GAOIRAN, Plaintiff-Appellee, v.
DIANNE K. HOAPILI, Defendant-Appellant

APPEAL FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE FIRST CIRCUIT
HONOLULU DIVISION
(CIVIL CASE NO. 1DRC-XX-XXXXXXX)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
(By: Hiraoka, Presiding Judge, Wadsworth, and Guidry, JJ.)

Upon review of the record, it appears that:
(1) On April 13, 2026, the court entered an Order for
Temporary Remand instructing the district court to enter an
appealable written order and/or judgment, or provide an
explanation as to why it is not possible or appropriate to do so.
(2) On April 29, 2026, the district court entered the
"Order Re: July 25, 2024 Hearing" that stated Plaintiff-Appellee
Basilia C. Gaoiran "was directed to the court's service center to
file the writ of possession and judgment for possession" and
"[t]o date, Plaintiff has not submitted a writ of possession
and/or judgment for possession for entry by the court." The
district court also stated "[o]nce jurisdiction is vested in this
court, the matter should be dismissed pursuant to Rules 12 and/or
29 of the Rules of the District Courts of the State of Hawai#i."
(3) This court lacks jurisdiction over self-
represented Defendant-Appellant Dianne K. Hoapili's appeal
because the district court has not entered an appealable order or

judgment, see Jenkins v. Cades Schutte Fleming & Wright, 76
Hawai#i 115, 869 P.2d 1334 (1994), and it stated it does not
intend to do so, cf. Waikiki v. Ho#omaka Village Assoc. of
Apartment Owners, 140 Hawai#i 197, 204, 398 P.3d 786, 793 (2017).
Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the appeal is
dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, May 13, 2026.
