Supreme Court of Hawai`i.

As Amended July 12, 1994.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Stephen M. Shaw, pro se.

Andrew S. Winer (Steven H. Aden, with him on the brief, of Jervis & Werner), Kailua, for defendant-appellee North American Title Co.

Before MOON, C.J., and KLEIN, LEVINSON, NAKAYAMA and RAMIL, JJ.


MOON, Chief Justice.

Plaintiff-appellant Stephen M. Shaw appeals from the First Circuit Court's dismissal of his complaint for lack of personal jurisdiction. Because we find that Shaw's complaint, together with the affidavits presented on the motion to dismiss, create a prima facie showing of personal jurisdiction, we vacate the circuit court's dismissal and remand for further proceedings.
