GRAHAM CONSTRUCTION SUPPLY, INC., Plaintiff-Appellant, v. SCHRADER CONSTRUCTION, INC., Defendant, and Contractor's License Board, Intervenor-Appellee.

Supreme Court of Hawaii.

August 24, 1981.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Edward C. Kemper, Honolulu (Kemper & Watts, Honolulu, of counsel), for plaintiff-appellant.

Benjamin M. Matsubara, Honolulu (Dale W. Lee, Honolulu, with him on the brief; Ukishima & Matsubara, Honolulu, of counsel), for intervenor-appellee.

Before RICHARDSON, C.J., and OGATA, MENOR, LUM and NAKAMURA, JJ.


NAKAMURA, Justice.

The question is whether a supplier of building materials is barred from collecting the amount of a judgment rendered against a building contractor from a special fund maintained by the Contractors License Board because of a subsequent statutory amendment that limits the class of persons entitled to payment therefrom to owners or lessees of private premises. We conclude that recovery is not precluded by the amendment.
