Description
This appeal stems from a suit brought in the circuit court by appellant Creighton Wong, a student at the Manoa Campus of the University of Hawaii, against appellee University of Hawaii and its officials (hereinafter "University"). The suit sought injunctive and declaratory relief to enjoin the University from imposing disciplinary action against appellant. He claimed that the statement and procedures regulating student conduct which were to be used against him in his disciplinary proceedings were rules within chapter 91, Hawaii Administrative Procedure Act (HAPA), Hawaii Revised Statutes; since they were not published as prescribed by HAPA, he urged the court to declare their invalidity. Instead, the circuit court dismissed appellants suit and granted summary judgment in favor of the University, holding that the statement and procedures were exempt from the requirements of HAPA because they concern only internal management of the University. This appeal followed and raises these questions: Whether the University is bound by HAPA, and whether the statement and procedures concern only internal management of the University.
