Terms Used In Hawaii Revised Statutes 232-4

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • Real property: Land, and all immovable fixtures erected on, growing on, or affixed to the land.

In every case in which a taxpayer appeals a real property tax assessment to a tax appeal court and there is pending an appeal of the assessment, the taxpayer shall not be required to file a notice of the second appeal; provided the first appeal has not been decided prior to April 9 preceding the tax year of the second appeal; and provided further the assessor gives notice that the tax assessment has not been changed from the assessment which is the subject of the appeal.
