Case Notes



 



  Penalty for first offense is only a violation.  68 H. 226,
708 P.2d 138.



  Where Oregon law firm did not "practice law within the
jurisdiction" of Hawaii, it did not violate §605-14 nor this section;
thus, plaintiff could recover fees under §607-14 for services rendered by
firm.  87 H. 37, 951 P.2d 487.
