*** NO T FO R PUBLICATION * * * NO. 25764 IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI#I STATE OF HAWAI#I, Plaintiff-Appellee vs. RICHARD LOUIS ADAM, Defendant-Appellant APPEAL FROM THE THIRD CIRCUIT COURT (CR. NO. 99-019K) ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL (By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, Acoba, and Duffy, JJ.) Upon review of the record, it appears that the denial of the motion to disqualify Judge Ibarra from hearing the contempt and probation revocation matters in Cr. No. 99-019K is an interlocutory decision that is reviewable on appeal from judgments on the contempt and revocation matters. 11. See HRS ยง 641- Absent entry of judgments on the contempt and revocation matters, the appeal of the decision denying disqualification 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, July 3, 2003.
