Case Notes

 

  Where breach of trust claims were for damages resulting from the State's breach of trust duties and did not require a determination of the office of Hawaiian affairs' proportionate share of revenues under §673-9, this chapter applied to the instant claims.  110 H. 338, 133 P.3d 767 (2006).

  Where plaintiffs failed to comply with the sixty-day notice requirement for filing suit under §673-3, this failure precluded the supreme court from reviewing any claims brought under this chapter.  110 H. 338, 133 P.3d 767 (2006).
