  • 2013 Judiciary History Center Annual Report
    King Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center 2012-2013 Annual Report 150 years ago, Queen Liliʻuokalani leaves Aliʻiōlani Hale on January 14, just days before the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi. Hedemann Collection, Bishop Museum King Kamehameha V Lot Kapuāiwa, grandson of Kamehameha I, ascended the throne in 1863 and was the last Kamehameha to rule the Kingdom of Hawai‘i. As a national leader, Lot made foreign relations and the preservation of independence his primary objectives. His advocacy for Hawaiians inspired a cultural renaissance which included the revival of hula and chant and licensing of medical kāhuna to practice their healing arts. During his reign, Lot commissioned a number of public works including the construction of Ali‘iōlani Hale. In 2000, the Judiciary History Center was renamed to the King Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center in his honor. King Kamehameha V History of Ali‘iōlani Hale Historic Ali‘iōlani Hale provides the ideal environment for the Judiciary History Center. Initiated during the reign of Kamehameha V and completed during the reign of Kalākaua, Ali‘iōlani Hale opened its doors in 1874. The Legislature and the Supreme Court of the Kingdom of Hawai‘i were the original occupants of the building. After the overthrow of the Monarchy in 1893, the Legislature moved to ‘Iolani Palace. Ali‘iōlani Hale has remained the home of the Supreme Court for well over 100 years. The National Museum, the first museum in Hawai‘i, opened in Ali‘iōlani Hale in 1874. For many years, the National Museum occupied rooms on the second floor and welcomed visitors to view its fine collection of Hawaiian artifacts.

  • Broken Trust
    Introduction to the Open Access Edition of Broken Trust Judge Samuel P. King and I wrote Broken Trust to help protect the legacy of Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop. We assigned all royal- ties to local charities, donated thousands of copies to libraries and high schools, and posted source documents to BrokenTrustBook.com. Below, the Kamehameha Schools trustees explain their decision to support the open access edition, which makes it readily available to the public. That they chose to do so would have delighted Judge King immensely, as it does me. Mahalo nui loa to them and to University of Hawai‘i Press for its cooperation and assistance. Randall W. Roth, September 2017 “This year, Kamehameha Schools celebrates 130 years of educating our students as we strive to achieve the thriving lāhui envisioned by our founder, Ke Ali‘i Bernice Pauahi Bishop. We decided to participate in bringing Broken Trust to an open access platform both to recognize and honor the dedication and courage of the people involved in our lāhui during that period of time and to acknowledge this significant period in our history. We also felt it was important to make this resource openly available to students, today and in the future, so that the lessons learned might continue to make us healthier as an organization and as a com- munity. Indeed, Kamehameha Schools is stronger today in governance and structure fully knowing that our organization is accountable to the people we serve.” —The Trustees of Kamehameha Schools, September 2017 “In Hawai‘i, we tend not to speak up, even when we know that some- thing is wrong.

  • Deconstructing the Descendants: How George Clooney Ennobled Old Hawaiian Trusts and Made the Rule Against Perpetuities Sexy
    Deconstructing The Descendants: How George Clooney Ennobled Old Hawaiian Trusts and Made the Rule Against Perpetuities Sexy By Professor Randall Roth The first and last sections of this essay are about a reel story. Of course I’m talking about the movie, The Descendants. It is based on a book of the same name, written by Kaui Hart Hemmings.1 The stories in the book and the film are quite similar, but not identical.2 The movie was nominated for five Academy Awards: best screenplay, best editing, best direction, best leading actor, and best movie. It won for best screenplay. If you saw the movie and stayed to watch all the credits—and I mean all the credits—you saw my name. It was the last name, on the last screen—appearing right after Dollar Rent-A-Car—but it was there. My involvement began three years earlier with a phone call from one of the movie’s producers wanting me to meet with Alexander Payne, the creative genius who was writing the script and in a few months would be directing the movie. I had not yet read the book, but the chance to meet with a successful moviemaker sounded like fun, so I invited both of them—Alexander and the producer—over to dinner. I also invited my Broken Trust3 co-author, federal judge Sam King, 1 Hemmings happens to be the daughter of longtime family friends. The Descendants is her first novel. Interestingly, the movie’s producers acquired the movie rights to the book while it was just a pre-publication manuscript.

  • GUEST: SAMUEL P. KING LSS 112 (LENGTH: 28:23) FIRST AIR DATE: 3/04/08 Aloha and Mahalo for Joining Me for Another Long Story
    GUEST: SAMUEL P. KING LSS 112 (LENGTH: 28:23) FIRST AIR DATE: 3/04/08 Aloha and mahalo for joining me for another Long Story Short. I’m Leslie Wilcox. Today we get to hear stories from Senior Federal Judge Sam King. Samuel P. King was the son of a Hawaii Governor and he’s lived a life of public service. His father, Samuel Wilder King, served in the U.S. Navy during two World Wars and as delegate to the U.S. Congress and Governor of the Territory of Hawaii. Judge King is now in his 90s and he’s still a working judge, still hearing cases. In 1997, he found time to co- author a lightning-rod newspaper essay with three other highly regarded Hawaiians and a law professor. The essay, Broken Trust, charged gross incompetence and massive trust abuse by the trustees of what was once called the nation’s wealthiest charity, Bishop Estate, responsible for the Kamehameha Schools. More recently, King and law professor Randall Roth wrote a book with new details of unchecked power. It occurs to me that you’ve grown up in the hallways, the corridors of power. Your dad was a naval officer, and then he was an elected officeholder; he was the Territorial governor. Maybe that’s why you’re so comfortable with power. No, I think I owe a lot of that to my mother who made sure that we kept our feet on the ground. And she taught us we were just as good as anybody. And people who had power never bothered me.

  • Public Education in Hawai'i: Past, Present & Future
    Public Education in Hawai‘i: Past, Present & Future By Randall W. Roth In 1840, missionaries convinced Kamehameha III to form a 21-district public education system with local governance and local funding.1 Communities with 15 or more school-age children were expected to provide their own schools.2 It soon became apparent, however, that the quality of the schools varied dramatically across the islands.3 So in 1844, “all districting was dropped and the schools were placed under central control … a distinguishing characteristic of the public schools ever since.”4 This leveled the playing field: “Whether the children live in the city or country, in an area favored by great wealth or in a relatively poor area, they have the same opportunity.”5 When Hawaii was annexed to the United States in 1898, a Congressional Subcommittee on Education determined that Hawaii’s public schools were on a par with public education in the United States.6 At the time of statehood, there were 135,700 public-school students—or 83.9 percent of elementary and secondary students statewide.7 The per-student level of spending was below the national average, $372 versus $481.8 A spokesman for the system said this was misleading because a single district system needs less money to operate: “The States pay more for staffs because of expensive duplication.” He added that the relative smallness of Hawai‘i’s land area 1 See, e.g., Maenette Kape’ahiokalani Padeken Ah Nee Benham and Ronald H.
