“We were very fortunate that our courthouse was not affected during the devastating wildfires earlier this month. Unfortunately, our Lahaina employees have suffered significant losses. I am inspired by their resilience and deeply appreciate their public service, and we in the Judiciary are committed to supporting them and the Lahaina community.” 

—Second Circuit Chief Judge Peter T. Cahill

Pending cases – except for those already rescheduled to Hoapili Hale (Wailuku District Court) – will be addressed at Lahaina. Questions about Lahaina cases can be directed to 808-661-0970.
