No. SCWC-12-0000396.

319 P.3d 284 (2013)

131 Haw. 365

STATE of Hawai`i, Respondent/Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Bladesin-Isaiah BAILEY, Petitioner/Defendant-Appellant, and Andrew Josiah Rodriguez, Respondent/Defendant.

Supreme Court of Hawai`i.

December 24, 2013.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Shawn A. Luiz , Honolulu, for petitioner.

Sonja P. McCullen , for respondent.

RECKTENWALD, C.J., NAKAYAMA, ACOBA, McKENNA, and POLLACK, JJ.


Opinion of the Court by ACOBA, J.

We hold, first, that proof that any part of an offense occurred on the island of Oahu is sufficient to establish venue in the first judicial circuit. Here, because several witnesses testified that the alleged Kidnapping committed by Petitioner/Defendant-Appellant Bladesin-Isaiah Bailey (Petitioner) occurred on the island of Oahu, there was sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the first judicial circuit was the correct venue.
