        CERTIORARI TO THE INTERMEDIATE COURT OF APPEALS
           (CAAP-13-0000531; CIVIL NO. 05-1-1981-11)
       ORDER ACCEPTING APPLICATION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI


 (By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Pollack, and Wilson, JJ.)

          The application for writ of certiorari filed by
Petitioners/Defendants/Appellees/Cross-Appellants, Sato and
Associates, Inc. and Daniel S. Miyasato, on August 7, 2015, is
hereby accepted and will be scheduled for oral argument.           The
parties will be notified by the appellate clerk regarding
scheduling.
          IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that each of the parties listed
below shall file a supplemental brief by October 5, 2015, not to
exceed ten pages in length, addressing the following two issues:
          (1) Is the duty to defend presented in Sato’s non-
          insurance, construction contract with KIC coextensive with
          Sato’s duty to indemnify?

          (2) Given case law and legislative history, does Hawaii
          Revised Statutes § 431:10-222 (2005), render void any
          provision in a construction contract requiring the promisor
          to defend “the promisee against liability for bodily injury
          to persons or damage to property caused by or resulting
          from the sole negligence or wilful misconduct of the
          promisee, the promisee’s agents or employees, or
          indemnitee?”

          DATED:    Honolulu, Hawaii, September 18, 2015.
