TRULA ANDERSON v. TRUMAN LEE KETCHMARK (2026)

Intermediate Court of Appeals of Hawai‘i.

TRULA ANDERSON, Plaintiff/Counterclaim Defendant-Appellee, v. TRUMAN LEE KETCHMARK, Defendant/Counterclaimant-Appellant

NO. CAAP-24-0000377

Decided: July 16, 2026

(By: Nakasone, Chief Judge, Leonard and Hiraoka, JJ.)

On the briefs: Truman Lee Ketchmark, Defendant/Counterclaimant-Appellant, self-represented

SUMMARY DISPOSITION ORDER

On April 19, 2024, Defendant/Counterclaimant-Appellant Truman Lee Ketchmark (Ketchmark), self-represented, filed an appeal from the Circuit Court of the First Circuit (Circuit Court) in 1CCV-22-0000359. This court construes the notice of appeal as appealing from the Circuit Court's April 5, 2024 Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law, and Order (FOFs, COLs & Order), which is not a final, appealable order or judgment. On April 27, 2026, this court entered an Order for Temporary Remand. On May 18, 2026, a Final Judgment was entered by the Circuit Court.¹

The FOFs, COLs & Order was entered after a jury-waived trial. On appeal, Ketchmark fails to identify any points of error. Ketchmark does not challenge any of the Circuit Court's FOFs or COLs. Ketchmark makes no discernible argument that the Circuit Court erred in entering judgment against him. Upon review, we conclude that there is no basis for appellate relief.

Accordingly, the Circuit Court's May 18, 2026 Final Judgment is affirmed.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawai‘i, July 16, 2026.

Karen T. Nakasone Chief Judge

Katherine G. Leonard Associate Judge

Keith K. Hiraoka Associate Judge
