Preliminary authority has been granted to remove a group of Native Hawaiian activists living on Hawai`i Island property that the county is trying to purchase.

West Hawaii Today reported Friday that Big Island District Judge Joseph P. Florendo Jr. this week ruled in favor of Hawaii County and a landowner against activist Abel Lui and others living on the oceanfront Kau property.


Hawaii County purchased a 235-acre parcel two years ago and is trying to buy an adjacent 550-acre parcel from the Edmund Olson Trust. The county needs to purchase the property by the end of the month or risk losing $2.5 million in federal and state funds.


The judge needs to approve final judgments and writs of possession for those living on the property to be physically removed if they don't leave voluntarily.


Lui and his followers have erected tents, installed portable toilets and planted gardens near the shore and along the road. Lui claims the trust's deed is not admissible under Hawaiian law.

  • Hi Andrew,

     

    Thank you.........also it appears that Kai of Aupuni seems to watching..............wonder what he could do?

    Think that Abel Lui could use assistance from all at this time.

     

    Looked for the video and apparently it was pulled. .....am leaving messages for both the poster and Kai... thank you again,

     

    aloha.

     

  • Aloha Kakou.

                               E Amelia those are very relevant questions you pose most especially as to whom exactly has Clear & Proper Title.

    Have you seen the comment placed by another member here on MW on this issue of Title, you may be able to contact indirectly there?

     

    Please see: http://maoliworld.ning.com/group/kawaaohana/forum/topics/you-guys-s...

     

    By appearances Abel Liu lives off the grid but you know he has a mailbox from the photograph. -Aloha.

  • Question: How much of the property is touched by the ocean ??
  • Hi Andrew.............

     

    Do you know how to get in contact with Lui? 

     

    The questions needed to be answered:

     

    1)  Who was granted the lands in the Mahele of 1848?

    2)  Do you have a direct connect to the original grantee?

    3)  Is there a break in title?

    4)  We were able to stop the smashing down of the houses in Kahana a few years ago.........

    5)  Would he consent to helping us by taking care of our families interests because we are part of Kauikeouli/Kamehameha III's hanai/adopted children's descendants, specifically Peke Davis..... we are in contact with Kale Davis and Hueu Davis descendants as well....

    6)  Would you like assistance from our families by serving an Injunction Notice to stop the destruction of your home?

    7)  Our documents were posted on the internet....google Kahana Issues

    8)  Protective Orders are available for your kanaka maoli families........ note:  I did retract Protective Orders for your sister in the past because it appears she did not believe it worked? etc.

     

    9)  Alternately, Abel could contact Aran Ardaiz, Alfred Spinney -he was given a set of documents for the Kahana kanaka maoli.

     

    10)  If you are the true owners, and have the proof, then you could use certain laws and cite case precedence, etc..........then again, if your sister claims she knows such then you may not be too successful with her assistance or with your cousin Daniel Akaka's assistance.

     

    11)  Please contact cdexk@yahoo.com if you don't want to contact us directly.

     

    12)  Your sister has copies of the Protective Orders which numbers were revoked, and that could be reassigned if you want it to be reassigned.

     

    13)  Please contact your cousin Dan if you need other information.

     

    Hope to hear from you soon because Timoteo Keaweiwi/Keawe's descendants are many, and from what I gather, if it is his lands that you're sitting on, then the documents should be used right away and served on the Judge, et. als.

    Aloha and Malama Pono.

  • Andrew,

    You are singing in the wind like the dead birds.  We are being poisoned everyday at different spots.  If Google earth was infrared one would see the poison everywhere in a spectural reflection quad shot!  The evidence one can see in a 100 x 100 pixel if trees that are nearby are dying or falling into a die-back.  Like with what happened to makua the dead reflectence off the valley caused the decision to slash and burn makua. 

     

    Take this away from the occupiers and take it to the computer generated earth photos and do an analysis of what you think statistically!  Quit the drama, and the la la, and the he man stuff!

  • Aloha 'oukou e Hawai'i kena.

                                                           There is more background information about Abel Simeona Lui and this case available here:
