The ordinance, as written (Honolulu County) — Judicial enforcement of order
A copy, taken August 22, 2026. The version published by Honolulu is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.
The director may institute a civil action in any court of competent jurisdiction for the enforcement of any order issued. Where the civil action has been instituted to enforce the civil fine imposed by the order, the director need only show that the notice of violation and order was served, a hearing was held or the time granted for requesting a hearing had expired without such a request, the civil fine was imposed, and that the fine imposed had not been paid.
