Description
Defendant, third-party plaintiff-appellant City and County of Honolulu (City) appeals from the orders 1) denying its motion to declare its claim unsuitable for action before the Design Professional Conciliation Panel (DPCP) and 2) granting third-party defendant-appellee Engineers Surveyors Hawaii, Inc.'s (ESH) motion to dismiss the City's third-party complaint, in which third-party defendant-appellee Soils International (Soils) joined. On appeal, the City asserts it was entitled to move for a determination that its negligence claim against ESH and Soils was unsuitable for DPCP review under Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) § 672-2.1 (1985), and thus, did not have to wait until the DPCP issued a decision under HRS § 672-8 (1985) before instituting action based upon its claim in circuit court. We agree.
