Terms Used In Hawaii Revised Statutes 560:3-109

  • Decedent: A deceased person.
  • Statute: A law passed by a legislature.

No statute of limitation running on a cause of action belonging to a decedent which had not been barred as of the date of the decedent’s death, shall apply to bar a cause of action surviving the decedent’s death sooner than four months after death. A cause of action which, but for this section, would have been barred less than four months after death, is barred after four months unless tolled.
