Rule 34 Hawai‘i Arbitration Rules

This rule points people to a separate set of rules that control how court-connected arbitration works in Hawaiʻi's circuit courts. Instead of listing the actual arbitration procedures here, it says those procedures are found in a document called the Hawaiʻi Arbitration Rules, which is attached as Exhibit A.

In simple terms, if your case goes through the Court Annexed Arbitration Program, the Hawaiʻi Arbitration Rules are the ones that actually spell out how the process works, including deadlines, hearings, and other steps. This rule just confirms that those separate rules are the official ones the courts will follow, and it notes that they take effect based on the timeline set out in Rule 27 of that same document.
