Supreme Court Rejects Certiorari in Fung v. Hoi, April 20
Summary
The Hawaii Supreme Court rejected the application for writ of certiorari filed by petitioners Wei Ling Fung and Fugang Xia (aka Summer) in Fung v. Hoi. The case was previously heard by the Intermediate Court of Appeals under case number CAAP-23-0000347. The rejection of certiorari means the lower court's decision stands as the final ruling in the case, and no further discretionary review will occur.
“Petitioners' Application for Writ of Certiorari, filed on March 10, 2026, is hereby rejected.”
What changed
The Hawaii Supreme Court issued a one-line order rejecting the certiorari application filed by petitioners Wei Ling Fung and Fugang Xia (aka Summer). The underlying case originated in the District Court (1DRC-21-0003362) and was previously heard by the Intermediate Court of Appeals (CAAP-23-0000347). The rejection means the Intermediate Court's ruling stands as the final decision and no appellate review will occur. Parties to similar civil litigation should note that certiorari denial does not indicate agreement with the lower court's reasoning—it is simply a procedural conclusion to the petition process.
For compliance purposes, this order has no direct regulatory implications. It is a standard judicial administrative action confirming the closure of the certiorari petition pathway for the named parties.
