Upon consideration of petitioners Maui Meadows Neighborhood Association and the Pono Power Coalition’s petition for extraordinary writ, filed on April 17, 2022, and the record, petitioners fail to demonstrate that they are entitled to the requested extraordinary writ to warrant this court’s intervention and have alternative means to seek relief. See, e.g., Kema v. Gaddis, 91 Hawai i 200, 204, 982 P.2d 334, 338 (1999) (a writ of mandamus is an extraordinary remedy that will not issue unless the petitioner demonstrates a clear and indisputable right to relief and a lack of alternative means to redress adequately the alleged wrong or obtain the requested action). Therefore, It is ordered that the petition for extraordinary writ is denied. DATED: Honolulu, Hawai i, May 9, 2022. /s/ Mark E. Recktenwald /s/ Paula A. Nakayama /s/ Sabrina S. McKenna /s/ Michael D. Wilson /s/ Todd W. Eddins 2
