NO. 02-1-1001) ORDER VACATING AMENDED JUDGMENT AND DISMISSING APPEAL (By: Moon, C.J., Levinson, Nakayama, and Acoba, JJ. and Circuit Judge Pollack, in place of Duffy, J. recused) Upon review of the record, it appears that the June 24, 2003 judgment in Civil No. 02-1-1001 was timely appealed by the parties in No. 26178. The timely appeals of the June 24, 2003 judgment divested the circuit court of jurisdiction over Civil *** NOT FOR PUBLICATION *** No. 02-1-1001 and the circuit court was without jurisdiction to enter the December 10, 2003 amended judgment and related orders. Thus, the December 10, 2003 amended judgment and related orders are void and of no effect. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the December 10, 2003 amended final judgment, the December 10, 2003 order granting the June 27, 2003 motion to alter judgment and the December 10, 2003 amended order granting summary judgment are vacated. The appeals by plaintiffs George Kaho ohanohano et al., plaintiffs ERS Trustees, defendant State of Hawai#i and defendant City and County of Honolulu are dismissed. DATED: Honolulu, Hawai#i, April 30, 2004. 2
