HRS §490:2-515
How to preserve evidence of goods in a dispute
This section lets either side in a dispute about goods inspect, test, or sample the goods, even if the other side has them, as long as they give reasonable notice. The parties can also agree to have a third party check the goods and accept that result as final.
