HRS §101-54
How this part works with Part I and combining cases
This section says that the rules in Part I apply to cases under this part, unless they conflict. If someone asks, a special case under this part can be combined with a related Part I case for the same public use. The circuit court judge for the Part I case will hear the combined case without a jury.

The statute, as written — Part I provisions adopted; consolidation of proceedings
The provisions of part I are adopted for and made applicable to the proceedings authorized by this part, except insofar as the provisions of part I are inconsistent with the express provisions of this part. Upon motion of any party, any special proceeding filed under this part may be consolidated for hearing and decision with any proceeding brought under part I for the same public use, and if so consolidated shall be heard and determined by the judge of the circuit court in which the proceeding under part I is pending, sitting without a jury.
