69Agency Appeals of OIP Decisions
An agency may appeal an OIP decision to the courts in accordance
with section 92F-42, HRS. An agency appeal must be fi led within
30 days of OIP’s decision, and notice must be given to OIP and
the person who requested the decision. OIP and the person who
requested the decision are not required to participate in the
proceeding, but may intervene.
The court’s review is limited to the record that was before OIP,
unless the court fi nds that extraordinary circumstances justify
discovery and admission of additional evidence. The circuit court
must uphold an OIP decision unless it concludes the decision was
palpably erroneous.
For more information, see OIP’s Guide to Appeals to the Offi ce of
Information Practices, available on OIP’s website at oip.hawaii.
