HRS §658A-18
How to enforce an early ruling by an arbitrator
If an arbitrator decides in your favor before the final decision, you can ask the arbitrator to make that ruling part of the official award. Then you can ask the court to quickly confirm that award. The court must confirm it unless it changes or cancels the award for legal reasons.
The statute, as written — Judicial enforcement of pre-award ruling by arbitrator
If an arbitrator makes a pre-award ruling in favor of a party to the arbitration proceeding, the party may request the arbitrator to incorporate the ruling into an award under section 658A-19. A prevailing party may make a motion to the court for an expedited order to confirm the award under section 658A-22, in which case the court shall summarily decide the motion. The court shall issue an order to confirm the award unless the court vacates, modifies, or corrects the award under section 658A-23 or 658A-24.
