HRS §532-8
How half-blood relatives inherit equally
This law says that when someone dies without a will, relatives who share only one parent (half blood) inherit the same share as relatives who share both parents (whole blood), unless the property came from a specific ancestor. In that case, only relatives who are also related to that ancestor can inherit it.

The statute, as written — Kindred of half blood
The kindred of the half blood shall inherit equally with those of the whole blood in the same degree; provided that where the inheritance came to the intestate by descent, devise, or gift, of some one of his ancestors, all those who are not of the blood of the ancestor, shall be excluded from such inheritance.
