I commented upon the decision in Hui Kakoo Aina Hoopulapula v. Bd. of Land and Nat. Res.,112 Haw. 28, 143 P.3d 1230 (Sep. 21, 2006) earlier in this post.
This opinion, detailing when and how a contested case may be demanded, should be read together with Aha Hui Malama O Kaniakapupu v. Land Use Comm’n, 111 Haw. 14, 139 P.3d 712 (July 24, 2006) and Keahole Defense Coalition, Inc. v. Bd. of Land and Nat. Res., 110 Haw. 419, 134 P.3d 585 (May 18, 2006).
