NO. 23767 IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I THOMAS A. CRAIG, Plaintiff-Appellant vs. COUNTY OF MAUI, DEPARTMENT OF WATER SUPPLY, Defendant-Appellee APPEAL FROM THE SECOND CIRCUIT COURT (CIV. NO. 98-0479) ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL (By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, Ramil, and Acoba, JJ.) Upon review of the record, it appears that: (1) the October 19, 2000 judgment, which purports to be the final judgment in Civil No. 98-0479, merely enters judgment in favor of the defendant and against the plaintiff without stating that the judgment is entered as to all claims asserted in the first amended complaint; see Jenkins v. Cades Schutte Fleming & Wright, 76 Hawai#i 115, 119, 869 P.2d 1334, 1338-39 (1994) (In a multiple claim or multiple party circuit court case, a judgment that purports to be the final judgment must, on its face, show finality as to all claims by identifying the claims for which the judgment is entered.); and, thus, (2) this appeal is premature and we lack jurisdiction. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction. DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, January 26, 2001.
