HAWAI ' I BAR COMMISSION, Respondent. ORIGINAL PROCEEDING (SCBA-16-0000190) ORDER

(By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Pollack, and Wilson, JJ.)

Upon consideration of Petitioner Stefan Rozembersky’s Petition for Writ of Mandamus, [1] Statement of Facts, Statement of Issues and Relief Sought, and Statement of Reasons for Issuing the Writ filed on January 4, 2017:

(1) Petitioner petitions the court to: (a) amend certain supreme rules related to examination and admission to the State bar; (b) allow attorneys, who are admitted and in good standing in another state, take the Hawai ' i bar examination, regardless of law school accreditation;

(c) allow for “waiver by motion” which would *2 allow applicant attorneys admission to the Hawai ' i bar without examination; and

(d) award Petitioner costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees associated with bringing this matter before the court.

(2) A writ of mandamus is an extraordinary remedy that will not issue unless the Petitioner demonstrates a clear and indisputable right to relief. Straub Clinic & Hospital v. Kochi, 81 Hawai ' i 410, 414, 917 P.2d 1284, 1288 (1996).

(3) Petitioner fails to demonstrate that he has a clear and indisputable right to the relief requested. Therefore,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition for a writ of mandamus is denied.
