HRS §651-18
How to get an improper attachment lifted
If you are a defendant and the court attached your property but the writ was issued improperly, you can ask the court to discharge it. You must give the plaintiff reasonable notice and file a motion. The court will discharge the writ if it finds it was improperly issued.

The statute, as written — Discharge of writ when improperly issued
The defendant may at any time after the defendant has appeared in the action, either before or after the release of the attached property, or before any attachment has been actually levied, apply on motion, upon reasonable notice to the plaintiff, to the court in which the action is brought, or to the judge thereof, that the writ of attachment be discharged, on the ground that the same was improperly issued. If upon the application, it satisfactorily appears that the writ of attachment was improperly issued, it shall be discharged.
