   RENE UMBERGER, MIKE NAKACHI, KA#IMI KAUPIKO, WILLIE KAUPIKO,

                                 vs.

THE HONORABLE JEFFREY P. CRABTREE, Judge of the Circuit Court of
     the First Circuit, State of Hawai#i, Respondent Judge,

                                 and

 DEPARTMENT OF LAND AND NATURAL RESOURCES, STATE OF HAWAI#I, and
        PET INDUSTRY JOINT ADVISORY COUNCIL, Respondents.


                        ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
                     (CIVIL NO. 12-1-2625-10)

           ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
 (By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Pollack, and Wilson, JJ.)

          Upon consideration of Petitioners’ petition for writ of

mandamus, filed on October 23, 2017, petitioners’ supplement to

the petition for writ of mandamus, filed on October 30, 2017, the

respective supporting documents, and the record, it appears that

petitioners fail to demonstrate a clear and indisputable right to

the requested relief.   See United States v. Kellington, 217 F.3d

1084, 1095 n.12 (9th Cir. 2000); Kema v. Gaddis, 91 Hawai#i 200,

204, 982 P.2d 334, 338 (1999).    Accordingly,
          IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition for writ of

mandamus is denied.

          DATED:   Honolulu, Hawai#i, November 15, 2017.
