LAND COURT CONSOLIDATIONS

An owner of two or more contiguous or adjacent lots, as defined in HRS § 501-85, covered by two or more separate land court applications, may combine them by filing a petition therefor, which shall be called a Land Court Consolidation, and be numbered consecutively in the same manner as original land court applications in accordance with Rule 2 of these rules. Such petition shall be accompanied by a map showing the land court application numbers and old lot numbers in dotted lettering and old lot boundaries within the consolidation in dotted lines. The title of the map shall contain provision for the consolidation number, the old land court application numbers, old map numbers, old lot numbers and areas, certificate of title numbers, and the total area of the consolidation. The map shall conform to requirements of a map filed with a petition for subdivision as set forth in Rule 104 of these rules. Unless the map contains a description of the exterior boundaries of the consolidation, it shall be accompanied by a typed description thereof in triplicate. The courses shall contain no reference to monuments at the ends thereof, either on the map or in the description. Lots so combined in a Land Court Consolidation may be treated as follows: (1) All contiguous lots may be consolidated into a single lot; (2) Individual lots may be redesignated; (3) Combinations of contiguous lots may be consolidated into larger lots and redesignated; (4) All lots or combinations of contiguous or adjacent lots may be consolidated and subdivided into new lots, in which case the provisions of Rule 104 shall be followed. The official abbreviation for Land Court Consolidation shall be Ld. Ct. Cons.
