PIRATES ON THE MOVE.......................
Review and Action Needed
by Amelia Gora
Genocide Activist Leader Gerritt Parmele Judd's descendant John Morgan is moving to quiet title Hakipuu and Kualoa lands on Oahu and have posted a legal notice a few days ago for Kanaka Maoli to respond in 10 days time or they will be defaulted and their lands will belong to them........wicked.............
Kualoa Ranch was part of King David Kalakaua's lands, and the Judd Family progressively moved to assume the Ranch as if it was theirs.
King David Kalakaua had a Trust which was part of Queen Kapiolani's Estates, and his sister Queen Liliuokalani being part of the heirs.
There are many unresolved issues over the Trusts, the Premeditation crimes/activities by the Judd Family(ies) and others who did a concerted move to assume lands, monies, government in the Hawaiian Islands.

Despite Oahu's down economy and challenging visitor market, Kualoa Ranch is beefing up their operations -- literally.
Kualoa, which occupies 4,000 acres along Oahu's northeastern coast and just celebrated its 160th year, has been involved in cattle ranching since the 1870s. The ranch, which is often used as a movie backdrop, also provides recreational activities including ATV tours, horseback rides, ocean voyaging and hula lessons as well as tours of its 800-year-old Molii Fishpond, gardens, movie sites and remote valley.
Kualoa already serves cafe patrons its own ranch-grown, grass-fed beef. But, starting in mid-2011, it will begin retailing the raw product as Kualoa Beef online and at its visitor center, said John Morgan, Kualoa Ranch's president. Morgan is a descendant of Dr. Gerrit Judd, who bought the first 622 acres of the ranch from King Kamehameha III in 1850.
"Business expansion is always something that we are looking at," Morgan said. "We are trying to make everybody aware of the history and the importance of the ranch's mission while at the same time trying to be as profitable as possible. We want to run this like a regular corporation that gets returns on equity."
Business growth is vital to stewardship of the ranch lands as well as keeping them in the family, he said.
In 1971 the City and County of Honolulu condemned 155 acres of Kualoa Ranch and turned it into Kualoa Regional Park, Morgan said.
"I grew up in a home on those lands," he said.
Since then two other attempts have been made to condemn other portions of the ranch, he said. The family has fought additional condemnation by turning the ranch into a destination attraction and an economic engine, Morgan said.
"We've learned that it's very important to share this land," he said. "When I was growing up, the attitude of my grandmother and great-aunt was that this is our property and everyone stay out. They were gracious people, with a very different approach."
While agriculture and stewardship of the land remain the key focus for the Morgan family, tourism and retail have provided needed economic diversification, he said. Last year, profitability enabled the ranch to offer community programs for about 14,000 people.
"We knew that an agricultural operation with under 4,000 acres with hardly any income and profits was not sustainable," Morgan said. "We needed to develop business with the prospect of growing."
A decade after the Judd family purchased Kualoa, it became home to Oahu's first sugar mill, which operated there from 1863 until it went bankrupt and closed in 1871. Soon after, the family began its cattle ranching operations. Over time they added acreage in Hakipuu and Kaaawa. Today about 500 head of cattle graze on roughly 1,500 acres of pasture. The herd is mostly made up of Angus, Brangus and Hereford stock.
"Going back to the beginning, every person in every generation who had the influence had this real devotion to the property and preserving the property," Morgan said. "Maximum financial return was not as important as preservation of the land. We are very fortunate that even the next generation feels that way."
But while it is an "honor to be part of such an illustrious legacy," Morgan said past successes and failures "show how far the most recent generation needs to plan ahead."
The ranch's entry into tourism in 1985 provided a good start, he said. But business struggled after the Asian financial crisis and after Sept. 11, 2001, Morgan said.
"We lost a lot of money," he said.
With the opening of a visitor center in 2004 and a shift back to tours that focused on nature and culture, the ranch gained market share, Morgan said.
The ranch was appealing enough to get honeymooners Maxine and Daniel Viola out of their room and into two tours. The Perth, Australia, couple recently took the ranch's movie tour and then decided to book an ATV tour to explore it more.
"We recognized most of the sites from the movies. It was really quite lovely," said Maxine Viola.
The couple said attractions like Kualoa enhanced their trip.
"It had a real island feel," Daniel Viola said.
Newer tours showcase Kualoa's importance to native Hawaiians and its spectacular natural beauty, Morgan said. Formerly the residence of a ruling chief, Kualoa was once a training ground where royalty were instructed in war, history and social traditions, he said. The early Hawaiians cultivated taro on the ranch's Hakipuu Valley lands, he said. They also harvested food from Molii Fishpond, considered one of the state's largest and most preserved fishponds.
By focusing on the ranch's strongest aspects, "we never saw the most recent downturn," he said.
The move into beef retailing will be the most significant business change since the Morgan family opened up their private ranch to visitors some 25 years ago, he said.
"We think we can make money at it. It's a great brand builder," Morgan said. "The local market is very important to us, and the more ways that we can reach them, the better it is for us."
The ranch also expects to tap into the growing "locavore" movement, which encourages consumption of nearby food sources, said Valerie King, the ranch's marketing director.
"Sustainability has become a very popular concept," she said.
Prices will retail for a slight premium over beef that is imported to the isles, Morgan said.
In addition, Kualoa will expand its other agricultural enterprises: its film presence and its tourist offerings, he said.
"We are hoping to make progress in 2011 rehabilitating some of our diversified (agricultural) lands that have gone fallow," Morgan said. "We will resurrect 100 acres over the next 10 years and are looking at selling tropical fruit in the future. Only about 2,000 of the ranch's acres currently are used for agriculture."
Kualoa also will introduce two new higher-end tourism products next year. The Royal Experience, an intimate, private half-day tour for guests who want to see otherwise off-limit parts of the ranch, will retail for $169. Another tour, the Kualoa Sunset Experience, will open the ranch for the first time to evening visitors. Tours, which will retail for $99, will include dinner and open-air entertainment.
The ranch, which has been featured in films from the 1961 Elvis Presley hit "Blue Hawaii" to the more recent "Jurassic Park," "Pearl Harbor" and "50 First Dates," will continue to consider opportunities that allow it to share its beauty with a broader audience. It was also a setting for television's "Lost" and continues to welcome "Hawaii Five-0" TV crews, Morgan said.
"There is mana (power) in the lands of Kualoa, and it is felt by those who come here," he said. "My family and everyone who has had a hand in maintaining Kualoa and sharing its mana are honored to be a part of such an extraordinary place."

Example of One of Kualoa Ranch Court Cases:
Thomas v. Hawaii
Hawaii Supreme Court
March 30, 1977
HANNAH HAILI THOMAS, GEORGE DORLAN WHITE, AND ELLEN JANE WHITE, PLAINTIFFS-APPELLEES,
v.
STATE OF HAWAII, ET AL., DEFENDANTS AND JENNIE T. SEBASTIAN AND MARVIN H. FUKUMITSU, DEFENDANTS-APPELLANTS
Appeal from First Circuit Court; Honorable Norito Kawakami, Judge.
Richardson, C.J., Kobayashi, Ogata, Menor and Kidwell, JJ. Opinion of the Court by Menor, J.
Menor
This case involves a dispute over the ownership of certain appurtenant water rights. The principal parties in this appeal are Jennie T. Sebastian and Marvin H. Fukumitsu, appellants, and Kualoa Ranch, Limited, appellee.
The controversy has its genesis in a complaint filed in the circuit court on March 19, 1968, by Hannah Haili Thomas, George White, and Ellen White seeking to quiet title to eight parcels of land (Parcels I through VIII) situate in the City and County of Honolulu, wherein they alleged record title in themselves as well as ownership by adverse possession. No mention of water rights was made in the complaint.
On June 6, 1968, Kualoa Ranch filed a disclaimer, stating that "except as set forth in the Complaint herein [Kualoa Ranch] hereby disclaims any interest or estate in the property
in which Plaintiffs seek to establish and confirm title." On September 18, 1968, Kualoa Ranch filed its answer to the complaint, alleging ownership of an undivided one-seventh interest in the water rights appurtenant to Parcels I through VIII and requested that any decree entered by the trial court "state that the interests of Plaintiffs or any other claimants of the land are subject to Kualoa Ranch's said water rights." This answer was addressed specifically to the plaintiffs' complaint and did not qualify as a cross-claim against Sebastian and Fukumitsu or any of the other defendants. Compare, Adair v. Hustace, 55 Haw. 445, 521 P.2d 869 (1974). Moreover, it was never served upon Sebastian and Fukumitsu. See H.R.C.P. Rule 5.
On July 21, 1970, Sebastian and Fukumitsu filed their answer and counterclaim against the plaintiffs and their cross-claim against all other defendants, including Kualoa Ranch, claiming title to Parcel VIII by adverse possession. The papers were served upon Kualoa Ranch on August 26, 1970. No answer was ever filed by Kualoa Ranch to this cross-claim. See H.R.C.P. Rule 12.
On February 10, 1971, the plaintiffs and Kualoa Ranch entered into a stipulation, wherein the plaintiffs recognized and acknowledged Kualoa Ranch's ownership of an undivided one-seventh interest in the water rights appurtenant to Parcels I through VIII. The stipulation further recited that "Defendant Kualoa Ranch has no objection to the entering of judgment or granting of summary judgment to Plaintiffs as to any or all of said parcels so long as said judgment acknowledges and incorporates its one-seventh interest in the water rights in said parcel or parcels." The circuit court approved the stipulation. On February 12, 1971, the stipulation was amended to specify a one-sixth interest in the water rights instead of the one-seventh interest originally mentioned. Sebastian and Fukumitsu were not parties to the stipulation. Neither did they approve it.
On motion of the plaintiffs, the trial court granted summary judgment in their favor as to Parcels I through VII. Sebastian and Fukumitsu had disclaimed any interest in [57 Haw Page 641] these particular parcels. Apparently because of the stipulation, the court included in its judgment a reservation of the water rights appurtenant to these parcels in favor of Kualoa Ranch. A motion by the plaintiffs for summary judgment as to Parcel VIII was denied. Thereafter, upon a trial by jury, which found in favor of the plaintiffs upon the issue of title and ownership as to Parcel VIII, the trial court entered judgment decreeing title and ownership of that parcel to be in the plaintiffs. Again obviously because of the stipulation, as amended, between the plaintiffs and Kualoa Ranch, the trial court included in its judgment a reservation in favor of Kualoa Ranch of an undivided one-sixth interest in the water rights appurtenant to Parcel VIII. No specific objection was raised by Sebastian and Fukumitsu to this inclusion, but they did indicate on the face of the judgment that they were not approving it as to form. Moreover, they did object to the introduction of the stipulation as an exhibit between themselves and the plaintiffs, and the trial court allowed the plaintiffs to make reference to it only for the purpose of showing that they were making no claim to the water rights at trial.*fn1
Sebastian and Fukumitsu subsequently appealed to this court from this adverse judgment.
In Thomas v. State, 55 Haw. 30, 514 P.2d 572 (1973), this court ruled as a matter of law that Sebastian and Fukumitsu had acquired title to Parcel VIII by adverse possession. Our Judgment on Appeal provided:
"Pursuant to the Opinion of the Supreme Court of the State of Hawaii, filed on September 28, 1973, the judgment of the Circuit Court is reversed and the case is remanded for entry of judgment for defendants JENNIE T. SEBASTIAN and MARVIN H. FUKUMITSU; said defendants to have their costs herein."
On remand Sebastian and Fukumitsu moved the circuit court to enter a judgment adjudging them to be the owners of Parcel VIII in accordance with this court's decision. Their proposed form of the judgment made no reference to water rights appurtenant to Parcel VIII. The circuit court, however, entered a judgment decreeing them to be the owners of Parcel VIII, but reserving to Kualoa Ranch and its successors in interest a one-sixth undivided interest in the water rights appurtenant to that parcel. Sebastian and Fukumitsu have appealed from this judgment.
We reverse that portion of the Judgment on Remand reserving unto Kualoa Ranch, Limited, or its successors in interest, an undivided one-sixth interest in the water rights appurtenant to the parcel of land designated as LCA 2997:2 to Nakanelua and also as Tax Key 4-9-03-3 [Parcel VIII].
The circuit court ought not to have included the reservation in the Judgment on Remand, entered by it on September 18, 1974. As between the plaintiffs and Sebastian and Fukumitsu the matter of water rights appurtenant to Parcel VIII was never in issue. The plaintiffs' complaint was directed solely to the title and ownership of Parcel VIII. Sebastian and Fukumitsu's answer and counterclaim and their cross-claim against Kualoa Ranch and the other defendants were addressed strictly to the issues raised in the complaint.
Neither can it be said that the issue of water rights was tried by the express or implied consent of the parties. See H.R.C.P. Rule 15(b); Territory v. Branco, 42 Haw. 304 (1958). At the onset of trial, the plaintiffs' counsel specifically represented to the trial court that they were making no claim to the water rights appurtenant to the parcels described in their complaint. Sebastian and Fukumitsu strenuously objected at trial to any reference being made to the stipulation regarding water rights between the plaintiffs and Kualoa Ranch. They made it clear to the trial court that they did not consider themselves bound by the stipulation between the plaintiffs and Kualoa Ranch. And it is axiomatic that one not a party to a stipulation may not be bound by it. See Arnett v. Throop, 75 Idaho 331, 272 P.2d 308 (1954).
Kualoa Ranch did assert its title to the water rights, a claim which the plaintiffs acknowledged and recognized. But this assertion of ownership was by way of an answer to the plaintiffs' complaint. As we pointed out earlier, Kualoa Ranch's answer was not a cross-claim against Sebastian and Fukumitsu, and it was never served upon them. In this connection, we also point out that insofar as the water rights specifically were concerned, Sebastian and Fukumitsu were not mandated to file a cross-claim against Kualoa Ranch. Rule 13(g) of the Hawaii Rules of Civil Procedure, relating to cross-claims, unlike Rule 13(a) which deals with compulsory counterclaims, is permissive in its application. American Sur. Co. of New York v. Fazel, 20 F.R.D. 110 (S.D. Iowa 1956); Adair v. Hustace, supra ; 6 Wright and Miller, Federal Practice and Procedure, ? 1431 (1971); 3 Moore's Federal Practice, ? 13.34(1) (1974).
Kualoa Ranch did not answer Sebastian and Fukumitsu's cross-claim of title to Parcel VIII by adverse possession and did not contest their claim at trial. The question of ownership of the water rights was not an issue before the jury. Neither was it an issue in the original appeal. Thomas v. State, supra. Kualoa Ranch, through its counsel of record, was served with copies of all papers, including the notice of appeal and the
appellate briefs, in Thomas v. State, supra, by Sebastian and Fukumitsu. Kualoa Ranch chose not to participate in that appeal.
That portion of the Judgment on Remand reserving the water rights to Kualoa Ranch is reversed, and the case is remanded for entry of judgment in accordance herewith.*fn2
