HRS §657D-15
How long a court pause lasts and when others can be sued
Read the official text at capitol.hawaii.gov ↗This section says that when a court pauses a case or action because of military service, the pause lasts for the service period plus 90 days, or any part of that time. The court can set conditions, like paying in installments. If the service member is one of several defendants, the plaintiff can continue against the others only with court permission.
