ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
(CR. NO. 1CPC-20-0000887) ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS AND/OR MANDAMUS
()
Upon consideration of petitioner Erik Willis's petition for writ of habeas corpus and/or mandamus, filed on December 21, 2020, the documents attached thereto and submitted in support thereof, and the record, it appears that petitioner, who is currently seeking relief in the underlying case, fails to demonstrate that he is entitled to the requested extraordinary writ from this court at this juncture. See Kema v. Gaddis, 91 Hawai'i 200, 204, 982 P.2d 334, 338 (1999); Oili v. Chang, 57 Haw. 411, 412, 557 P.2d 787, 788 (1976). Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition for writ of habeas corpus and/or mandamus is denied.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawai'i, January 11, 2021.
