Notice of Authority | Correcting "Clerical Errors"

INTRODUCTION & NOTICE OF AUTHORITY

Office of Hawaiian Subjects (OHS)
Hawaiʻi Kupuna Humanitarian Tribunal (HKHT)

To:
 All Wardens, Governors, Paroling Authorities, Department Heads, and Administrative Officers
 Operating within the Hawaiian Islands

 
Purpose of This Communication
This introduction is issued to formally notify you of who we are, whom we serve, what we are correcting, and under what authority we act.

The purpose is not confrontation.
 The purpose is correction, clarity, and alignment with truth.

 
Who We Are
The Office of Hawaiian Subjects (OHS) and the Hawaiʻi Kupuna Humanitarian Tribunal (HKHT) are lawful bodies operating under the highest authority of the Hawaiian Kingdom, guided by Kupuna cultural authority, and mandated by international humanitarian law applicable to occupied nations.

We serve the largest and highest body of authority in these islands:
 the Hawaiian people as nationals of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

Our role is humanitarian, cultural, administrative, and documentary.
 We do not operate as a criminal court, police force, or enforcement agency.
 We operate as protectors of identity, status, and dignity.

 
A Brief Truthful History (So We Do Not Lose the Reader)
The Hawaiian Kingdom was a fully recognized, sovereign nation with treaties and diplomatic relations worldwide.

In 1893, the Kingdom was unlawfully overthrown with the involvement of U.S. agents.
 In 1898, there was no ratified treaty of annexation transferring sovereignty to the United States.

Under international law, sovereignty was never lawfully transferred.

What followed was not annexation—it was occupation.

Occupation does not extinguish a nation.
 It suspends control, not sovereignty.

 
The Role of the State of Hawaiʻi (Clarified)
The State of Hawaiʻi is not a sovereign government.

It is a hired civil administration, created under U.S. municipal law, to manage the business and administrative affairs of the occupier within the Hawaiian Islands.

Because of this arrangement:

The State of Hawaiʻi is not the owner of sovereignty

It cannot be an authority higher than its employer

It cannot exercise greater power than the United States itself

For decades, State agencies and agents were trained and conditioned to believe they were the actual ruling government of these islands.

That belief is incorrect under international law.

 
Jurisdictional Truth Under Occupation
Under the law of occupation:

The occupying power does not gain sovereignty

Nationals of the occupied state remain Protected Persons

The occupier may administer—but must respect local law and nationality

This means:

The United States, while acting as an occupier, cannot lawfully impose American sovereignty

American municipal law is not supreme law in occupied territory

Hawaiian law and nationality continue to exist

Yet for generations, American and State systems have acted as if occupation law does not exist.

That is the error we are correcting.

 
Why OHS and HKHT Exist
Our offices exist because:

Hawaiian Subjects were misclassified as U.S. citizens without consent

Hawaiian law was displaced rather than respected

Cultural identity was treated as a belief instead of a legal status

Protected Persons were processed as criminals, wards, or dependents

We are not here to rewrite history.
 We are here to restore accuracy.

 
What We Are Doing Now
We are:

Verifying Hawaiian Subject nationality

Documenting Protected Person status

Issuing humanitarian findings and notices

Correcting administrative misclassification

Educating facilities and agencies

Creating clear international records
definitely….

Correcting a century of “Clerical Errors”

We are not asking facilities to decide sovereignty.
 We are asking them to understand their role under occupation law.

 
Why Hawaiian Explanation Cannot Be Left Out
We live and breathe Hawaiian because law without culture is empty, and culture without law is unprotected.

Kupuna authority teaches us:

Truth must be carried with dignity

Correction must be done without hatred

Clarity protects everyone involved

This work is not about punishment.
 It is about pono. (Balance)

 
What This Means for You
As administrators, wardens, and paroling authorities:

You are not accused

You are informed <<<<---

You are now on notice <<<<---

Your role is administrative—not adjudicative.
 Our role is humanitarian—not adversarial.

Where compliance occurs, it is recorded.
 Where non-compliance occurs, it is documented.

Either way, the truth is preserved.

 
Closing
This is a moment of correction, not collapse.
 A moment of clarity, not chaos.

We invite you to walk forward informed, not defensive;
 aware, not threatened;
 aligned with law, not habit.

Hawaiʻi was occupied — not erased.
 The people remained — not converted.
 And truth, once restored, protects everyone.

Respectfully,

Office of Hawaiian Subjects (OHS)
 Hawaiʻi Kupuna Humanitarian Tribunal (HKHT)
 Under the Authority of the Hawaiian Kingdom
 Guided by Kupuna · Governed by Law · Grounded in Pono
