IN RE LEONARDO R. CHAVEZ
_______________________________________________________________
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
(CASE NO. 1PC141000360)
ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION
(By: Devens, C.J., McKenna, Eddins, and Ginoza, JJ.,
and Circuit Judge Medeiros, assigned by reason of vacancy)
Upon consideration of the motion for reconsideration filed
on September 16, 2026, and the record, the motion is untimely
because it was filed more than ten days after the filing of this
court’s September 1, 2026 order denying the petition. See
Hawaiʻi Rules of Appellate Procedure (HRAP) Rule 40(a) (eff.
2000).
Even if timely, this court has not overlooked or
misapprehended points of law or fact. See HRAP Rule 40(b).
It is ordered that the motion is denied.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, September 23, 2026
