Based on updates to the law, we made the following changes: In our Hawaii Workplace Protections page, we revised the list of documents that an employer can request in What documentation do I have to give my employer if I want to take time off? In our Hawaii Restraining Orders page, we added coercive control as a ground for getting an order of protection to What is the legal definition of domestic abuse in Hawaii? and we added information about the respondent being able to request that the petition be shielded from the public when a temporary restraining order is denied in I was not granted an order for protection. What are my options? We also added information about the judge being able to issue or extend an order that relates to a minor until after the minor turns 18 to What types of orders for protection are there? How long do they last? and How do I change or extend my order for protection? We added the same information to our Injunctions Against Harassment section in What kinds of injunctions against harassment are there? How long do they last?
