Docket Event MinutesOctober 10, 2023 / 1CCV-23-0000084 / WONG v KIDO FURTHER STATUS CONFERENCE RE: SCHEDULING EARLY SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE Courtroom 5B PRESENT VIA ZOOM: - Eric Robinson for Plaintiff - John Schmidtke for Plaintiff (on Family Court case) - Kallista Hiraoka for Defendant Aaron Harada - Philip Miyoshi for Defendant Nolan Kido Off-the-Record / 1:36 1:45pm The Court met with counsel in 1CCV-23-0000084 for a Further Status Conference. Mr. Iwao was not present but informed the Court he was under the weather. Counsel updated the Court that they are close to finalizing the Stipulation. Both Stipulations in the Divorce and in the Civil matters need to be submitted and filed by 10/18/23 because of the upcoming Family Court hearing date and the documents are due to Judge Medeiros in Family Court on Thursday, October 12, 2023. The parties are hoping to have the stipulation finalized and signed today, with submission in the Civil case, and then have Mr. Schmidtke work with Mr. Glenn to get it finalized, signed and submitted in the Family Court case. Based on the looming deadline in Family Court, this Court did not schedule a further status in this matter. Concluded.

Docket Event MinutesSEPTEMBER 22, 2023 / 1CCV-23-0000084 / WONG VS KIDO FURTHER STATUS CONFERENCE (VIA ZOOM) RE: SCHEDULING EARLY SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE COURTROOM: 5B / OFF-THE-RECORD: 10:00 A.M. - 10:20 A.M. PRESENT VIA ZOOM: Eric Robinson for Pltf Lisa Wong Phillip Miyoshi for Deft Nolan Kido Kallisa Hiraoka for Deft Aaron Harada Regan Iwao for Defts Lilian & Richard Kido, Joyce Moriyama and June Takushi John Schmidtke (Counsel in Family Court matter) Court met with Counsel via Zoom for an update in 1CCV-23-0000084. Parties have agreed to temporarily stay all pending matters in the family court case but have not yet finalize the proposed Stipulation to Appoint a Discovery Master/Mediator. Mr. Iwao has a pending motion for protective order before Judge Tonaki set for hearing next Tuesday, 9/26/2023. However, based on the representations made by Counsel to take off depositions scheduled in the family court case, Mr. Iwao is inclined to contact Judge Tonaki's to reschedule the hearing on his Motion for Protective Order. Opposing Counsel had no objections to Mr. Iwao's intentions. Counsel will continue to work towards formulating a Stipulation to Appoint a Discovery Master/Mediator (same person) in the Civil case first, and a similar Stipulation in the Family Court case. Court set a further status conference for Tuesday, October 10, 2023 at 1:30 p.m. to follow up on the Stipulation. Concluded.

Docket Event MinutesSeptember 15, 2023 / 1CCV-23-0000084 / WONG v. KIDO STATUS CONFERENCE Courtroom 5B PRESENT VIA ZOOM: - Eric Robinson for Plaintiffs Lisa Wong - Leighton Hara for Defendant Aaron Harada - Philip Miyoshi for Defendant Nolan Kido - Regan Iwao for Defendant Lilian & Richard Kido, Joyce Moriyama & June Takushi - Megan Kau for Defendant Accelsior Dental Mgmt - John Schmidtke (counsel on Family Court matter) - Cheryl Arakaki (counsel on Family Court matter) Off-Record Discussions / 10:20 11:11am The Court met with counsels for a Status Conference in 1CCV-23-0000084. The Court received a request to facilitate an Early Settlement Conference and wanted to get an update from counsel on the status and how the Court can be of assistance. Mr. Hara updated the Court that there is an on-going parallel divorce proceeding in Family Court involving the parties. Mr. Miyoshi informed the Court that Defendant Nolan Kido is looking for a global settlement (including the Family Court matter) but there may be some jurisdictional issues. According to Mr. Robinson, Plaintiff Lisa Wong is amenable to settlement but is looking to set up a roadmap for discovery dates and deadlines, and the flow of documents. Mr. Iwao shared that the Nolan Kido family Defendants are amenable to settlement, but is concerned about the upcoming depositions in the Family Court case on September 25, 2023. If Mr. Iwaos clients are made available for depositions, he only wants to make them available once. Ms. Kau has a pending Motion to Set Aside Default on behalf of her clients; if the default is not set aside then her clients will not participate in the settlement and if the default is set aside, then her clients will participate. The Court proposed the possibility of a mediator who could globally mediate the case and also serve as a Discovery Master as well, for example: Retired Judge Victoria Marks or Retired Judge William Nagel who have both civil litigation backgrounds along with family court divorce backgrounds. This may be the most cost-effective way of proceeding, even though the parties will need to pay for that persons services. That person would be informed of the issues in both cases, the concerns raised in both cases and that way can make an informed decisions knowing itll affect both cases. The Discovery Master can allocate the fees and costs to the actual parties that are raising the issue. The Court offered to assist with coming up with the arrangements as to how the fees and costs of the Discovery Master/Mediator would be paid (e.g. if you use the services for the Discovery Master, then youre on the hook for paying the fee and it would be divided by the parties who are before the Discovery Master on that particular issue). Language regarding the fees can be included in a Stipulation so that its applicable for both the divorce case and the civil case. The duties, responsibilities and powers can also be laid out in the Order Appointing Discovery Master and filed in both the family court and civil cases. Mr. Schmidtke raised some concerns about the hearing before Judge Medeiros in Family Court on October 18, 2023 regarding the Iolani tuition and foreclosure on the Halemaumau property. The Court tasked Mr. Miyoshi and Mr. Robinson with taking the lead in preparing the Stipulation and Order Appointing Discovery Master/Mediator to be filed in both the Family Court and Civil cases, and in which Mr. Iwao, Mr. Hara, and Ms. Kau can approve if it looks good to them. If there are issues finalizing the Order, then the Court can meet with just Mr. Miyoshi and Mr. Robinson for a Status Conference; Mr. Miyoshi and Mr. Robinson were agreeable with the Courts suggestion. The Court will have a Discovery Master Order emailed to Mr. Miyoshi and Mr. Robinson to use as a template and starting point. The Court instructed Mr. Miyoshi and Mr. Robinson to prepare a draft stipulation by Tuesday, September 19, 2023 and circulate that to all parties for review. Because the goal is to achieve a global settlement, then that would affect the hearing on October 18, 2023 before Judge Medeiros in Family Court. As such, Mr. Schmidtke will recommend to his client to put the hearing on October 18, 2023 on hold in order to get the contemplated Stipulation and Order in place. Mr. Miyoshi will get in touch with Mr. Glenn so that he (and his client) are on the same page as well. Mr. Schmidtke is willing to reschedule the depositions from Monday, September 25 to a later date in order to proceed with the Stipulation and Order in both cases. Mr. Schmidtke will work with Mr. Iwao on rescheduling the deposition of Joyce Moriyama because her deposition is the most complicated and could take the most time. Mr. Glenn was not willing to join the current Status Conference because he does not represent anyone before this Court now. The Court set a Further Status Conference on Friday, September 22, 2023 at 10:00am. Concluded.
