INTRODUCTION
On October 2, 2017, Plaintiff King Kamehameha VII, Ni‘i Loa Mo‘i Kapu
(“Mo‘i Kapu”), formerly known as John Freeman Eleu Santos, proceeding pro se,
filed a Second Amended Complaint1 that once again attempts to assert claims
against the State of Hawaii, the State Attorney General, Sheriff’s Division, and the
Bureau of Conveyances, challenging the sovereignty of the United States and the
State of Hawaii and seeking the payment of taxes from the same. Dkt. No. 11.
1
Although designated the “First Amended Complaint,” the Court dismissed Plaintiff’s First
Amended Complaint with leave to amend on August 2, 2017. At that time, the Court also directed
that any “amended complaint must designate that it is the ‘Second Amended Complaint’ and may
not incorporate any part of the First Amended Complaint.” See 8/2/17 Order at 12, Dkt. No. 8.
Because the current filing is Plaintiff’s third attempt at filing a complaint in this matter, the Court
refers to the document as the Second Amended Complaint (“SAC”).
Within the Second Amended Complaint, Mo‘i Kapu incorporates a Motion to Strike,
Motion for Preliminary and/or Permanent Injunction, and a Motion for Temporary
Receiver, although the specific relief targeted by each “Motion” is not readily
apparent.
The Second Amended Complaint suffers from the same deficiencies as Mo‘i
Kapu’s prior complaints, previously identified in the Court’s May 15, 2017 and
August 2, 2017 Orders dismissing with leave to amend both his initial Complaint
and First Amended Complaint. Dkt. No. 4 (5/15/17 Order) and Dkt. No. 8 (8/2/17
Order). Because Mo‘i Kapu once more fails to state a claim for relief, and because
the Court determines that further leave to amend is futile, the Second Amended
Complaint is DISMISSED with prejudice pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e).
Likewise, all pending Motions are DENIED, as Plaintiff fails to either identify the
relief sought or to establish any entitlement to relief.2
DISCUSSION
Because Mo‘i Kapu is appearing pro se, the Court liberally construes his
filings. See Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89, 94 (2007); Eldridge v. Block, 832
F.2d 1132, 1137 (9th Cir. 1987) (“The Supreme Court has instructed the federal
courts to liberally construe the ‘inartful pleading’ of pro se litigants.”) (citing Boag
v. MacDougall, 454 U.S. 364, 365 (1982) (per curiam)). The Court recognizes that
2
Pursuant to Local Rule 7.2(d), the Court finds these Motions suitable for disposition without a
hearing.
2
“[u]nless it is absolutely clear that no amendment can cure the defect . . . a pro se
litigant is entitled to notice of the complaint’s deficiencies and an opportunity to
amend prior to dismissal of the action.” Lucas v. Dep’t of Corr., 66 F.3d 245, 248
(9th Cir. 1995); see also Crowley v. Bannister, 734 F.3d 967, 977–78 (9th Cir.
2013). A court may, however, deny leave to amend where further amendment
would be futile. See, e.g., Leadsinger, Inc. v. BMG Music Pub., 512 F.3d 522, 532
(9th Cir. 2008) (reiterating that a district court may deny leave to amend for, among
other reasons “repeated failure to cure deficiencies by amendments previously
allowed . . . [and] futility of amendment”).
As detailed below, the SAC is dismissed and further amendment would be
futile under the circumstances because: (1) Plaintiff failed to follow the Court’s prior
Orders; (2) his invocation of this Court’s jurisdiction while simultaneously
challenging its authority is nonsensical; (3) there is no showing that the government
defendants have waived sovereign immunity; and (4) no private cause of action
exists for violations of 18 U.S.C. § 4, as alleged.
Even given the most liberal construction possible, to the extent Mo‘i Kapu
requests injunctive relief or the appointment of a temporary receiver, he fails to
establish any entitlement to such relief. Nor is it even clear on the face of the
pleadings what relief he seeks. Accordingly, the pending Motions are denied.
3
I.
The SAC Is Dismissed Without Further Leave To Amend
After twice affording Plaintiff the opportunity to amend his complaints, and
providing specific instructions on the permissible parameters of such amendment,
Mo‘i Kapu again fails to state a claim. As discussed below, even liberally
construed, the SAC fails to state any discernible basis for judicial relief.
A.
Standard of Review
The Court subjects each civil action commenced pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(a) to mandatory screening and can order the dismissal of any claims it finds
“frivolous, malicious, failing to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, or
seeking monetary relief from a defendant immune from such relief.” 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(e)(2)(B); Lopez v. Smith, 203 F.3d 1122, 1126-27 (9th Cir. 2000) (en banc)
(stating that 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e) “not only permits but requires” the court to sua
sponte dismiss an in forma pauperis complaint that fails to state a claim); Calhoun v.
Stahl, 254 F.3d 845, 845 (9th Cir. 2001) (per curiam) (holding that “the provisions of
28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) are not limited to prisoners”). Because Mo‘i Kapu is
appearing pro se, the Court liberally construes the SAC and related Motions.
The Court may dismiss a complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil
Procedure 12(b)(6) for “failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted[.]”
A Rule 12(b)(6) dismissal is proper when there is either a “‘lack of a cognizable
legal theory or the absence of sufficient facts alleged.’” UMG Recordings, Inc. v.
4
Shelter Capital Partners, LLC, 718 F.3d 1006, 1014 (9th Cir. 2013) (quoting
Balistreri v. Pacifica Police Dep’t, 901 F.2d 696, 699 (9th Cir. 1990)). A plaintiff
must allege “sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to ‘state a claim to relief that
is plausible on its face.’” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009) (quoting Bell
Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007)); see also Weber v. Dep’t of
Veterans Affairs, 521 F.3d 1061, 1065 (9th Cir. 2008). This tenet – that the court
must accept as true all of the allegations contained in the complaint – “is
inapplicable to legal conclusions.” Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678. Accordingly,
“[t]hreadbare recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere
conclusory statements, do not suffice.” Id. (citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555); see
also Starr v. Baca, 652 F.3d 1202, 1216 (9th Cir. 2011) (“[A]llegations in a
complaint or counterclaim may not simply recite the elements of a cause of action,
but must contain sufficient allegations of underlying facts to give fair notice and to
enable the opposing party to defend itself effectively.”).
“A claim has facial plausibility when the plaintiff pleads factual content that
allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the
misconduct alleged.” Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678 (citing Twombly, 550 U.S. at 556).
Factual allegations that only permit the Court to infer “the mere possibility of
misconduct” do not show that the pleader is entitled to relief as required by Rule 8.
Id. at 679.

B.
The SAC Fails To State A Claim For Relief
As was the case with his prior pleadings, it appears that Mo‘i Kapu is
aggrieved by the district and appellate courts’ prior rulings in Algal Partners, L.P.
vs. Jon Freeman Eleu Santos, et al., Civil No. 13-00562 LEK-BMK (D. Haw), the
failure of the United States and/or State of Hawaii to pay taxes to the Hawaiian
Kingdom, and other unspecified conduct by numerous entities and individuals.
Even given a liberal construction, the allegations in the SAC once more fail to state
any sort of cognizable claim against any defendant.
As a preliminary matter, the Court observes that Mo‘i Kapu neither adhered to
the specific guidance nor heeded the prior warnings provided in the Court’s August
2, 2017 Order. The Court permitted him to amend to attempt to cure the
deficiencies noted in that Order, but specifically explained that his claims for
violation of 18 U.S.C § 4 and all claims against immune defendants were dismissed
with prejudice and cautioned that those claims were not to be re-alleged in any
amended complaint. See 8/2/17 Order at 11. The SAC, however, alleges nearly
identical claims against what appear to be the same defendants. Insofar as the SAC
simply repeats the same allegations against the same parties, it is axiomatic that they
fail to state a claim—they were all previously dismissed for that reason. Even
viewing the SAC in the light most favorable to Plaintiff, the re-asserted claims
6
previously dismissed with prejudice exceed the leave to amend granted in the
Court’s August 2, 2017 Order.
The SAC and associated Motions, although far from clear, also seek the
following—
REQUEST, MOTION MOVES TO STRIKE; MOTION FOR
ENJOINED A PRELIMINARY “TRO” TEMPORARY
RESTRAINING ORDERS; DEFENDANT, HIS MAJESTY
MAY OBTAIN BY EX PARTE MOTION ORDER TO SHOW

GENERAL AND EMPLOYEES OF THE CORPORATE
STATE OF HAWAI‘I.
SAC at 3.
7
As he did in the First Amended Complaint (“FAC”), Mo‘i Kapu again alleges
in the SAC—
The Hawaiian Kingdom has had it fully functioning government
of its sovereign’s rights! Corporate State of Hawai‘i has no
jurisdiction onto lands claim back by his Majesty for Royal
Patents for none payment of Taxes. Lands revert to his Majesty.
Until illegally occupied and continue to be occupied by U.S.
Military, corporate State of Hawai‘i and its corporative entities
has not paid their fair share of Royalty taxes. . . . Today. . .
along with other corporate State of Hawaii employees “List of
Name” Exhibits-E Letter to Eric Holder justice department under
jurisdiction of this U.S. District Courts of Hawai‘i as a corporate
State have been committed felons for receiving moneys from the
opposing State as a Sovereign Hawaiian Nation and its lands.
Accord[ing] to an Article III Court established under and by
Article III of the U.S. Constitution in compliance with Article
43, 1907 Hague Convention IV (36 U.S. Stat. 2277). Article III
Courts are Military Courts established by authority of the
President, 1 being Federal Courts, which were established as
“the product of military occupation.” See Bederman, Article III
Courts, 44 Mercer Law Review 825879,826 (1992-1993).
Military Courts “are generally based upon the occupant’s
customary and conventional duty to govern occupied territory
and to maintain law and order.”
****
Plaintiff asserts that this Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction
because the Hawaiian Kingdom continues to exist as a state
pursuant to international law and has been under a prolonged and
illegal occupation since January 17, 1983 by the United States of
America.
SAC at 13–15.
8
In large part, the SAC appears to assert Mo‘i Kapu’s own claimed exemption
from the payment of applicable state and federal taxes, in addition to his demand that
both the United States and State of Hawai‘i pay to him all taxes or duties owed to the
Hawaiian Kingdom. See SAC at 43 (“Today His Majesty is exempt from all state
and federal taxes within said jurisdictions. But to make known as soon as possible
that valuation of duties is to be paid within the limits of these jurisdiction waters as
Royalty exists today.”).
The SAC, like the FAC, lists twenty-eight nearly identical counts against both
private and government individual and entity defendants for misprision of felony in
violation of 18 U.S.C. § 4 based upon the “[f]ailure to render aid [to] the Head of
State of the Hawaiian Kingdom” and “war crimes.” See SAC at 17–39. Mo‘i
Kapu seeks damages ranging from “$93,000 (ninety-three thousand)” to “in excess
of $10,000,000 (ten million),” varying by defendant, but also seeks to “quiet title
and demands safe passage to his estates,” from other defendants. SAC at 40–42.
The SAC suffers from the same deficiencies identified in both the original
Complaint and the FAC. First, the SAC yet again fails to comply with Rule 8,
which mandates that a complaint include a “short and plain statement of the claim,”
Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)(2), and that “each allegation must be simple, concise, and
direct.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(d)(1). A complaint that is so confusing that its “‘true
substance, if any, is well disguised’” may be dismissed sua sponte for failure to
9
satisfy Rule 8. Hearns v. San Bernardino Police Dep’t, 530 F.3d 1124, 1131 (9th
Cir. 2008) (quoting Gillibeau v. City of Richmond, 417 F.2d 426, 431 (9th Cir.
1969)); see also McHenry v. Renne, 84 F.3d 1172, 1178-80 (9th Cir. 1996)
(affirming dismissal of complaint where “one cannot determine from the complaint
who is being sued, for what relief, and on what theory, with enough detail to guide
discovery”). That is the case here. Even applying the most liberal pleading
standard, the Court cannot discern the conduct of any named defendant upon which
any claim is based, other than Mo‘i Kapu’s apparent challenge to the legitimacy of
the State of Hawaii and his desire to avoid paying taxes.
Second, to the extent he challenges the jurisdiction of this district court to
enter orders in this matter based upon the existence of the Hawaiian Kingdom, see,
e.g., SAC at 15, his arguments are without merit. His invocation of the Hawaiian
Kingdom or international law, or his understanding of criminal law, does not affect
the legitimacy of the United States or this district court. See United States v.
Lorenzo, 995 F.2d 1448, 1456 (9th Cir. 1993); State v. Lorenzo, 77 Haw. 219, 221,
883 P.2d 641, 643 (Ct. App. 1994); Kupihea v. United States, 2009 WL 2025316, at
*2 (D. Haw. July 10, 2009); Waialeale v. Offices of U.S. Magistrate(s), 2011 WL
2534348, at *2 (D. Haw. June 24, 2011) (“The Ninth Circuit, this court, and Hawaii
state courts have all held that the laws of the United States and the State of Hawaii
10
apply to all individuals in this State.”). This Court, and others, have repeatedly
rejected Mo‘i Kapu’s arguments to this effect.3
Third, to the extent Mo‘i Kapu again invokes federal criminal statutes, he fails
to state a claim. In its prior Orders, the Court informed Mo‘i Kapu that no private
right of action exists to enforce the criminal statutes cited, and private individuals,
such as Plaintiff, have no authority to issue a criminal indictment for violation of 18
U.S.C. § 4 or any other criminal statute. See 5/15/17 Order at 11; 8/2/17 Order at 9
(dismissing identical claims with prejudice). Criminal charges may only be
brought by the United States. See, e.g., United States v. Nixon, 418 U.S. 683, 693
(1974) (noting that the executive branch has exclusive authority to decide whether to
prosecute a case). Counts I through XXVIII alleging violations of 18 U.S.C. § 4
fail to state a claim for relief against any party.
Finally, the Court again dismisses the claims for damages against the State of
Hawaii or state officials acting in their official capacities as barred by the Eleventh
Amendment. See Will v. Mich. Dep’t State Police, 491 U.S. 58, 71 (1989);
Papasan v. Allain, 478 U.S. 265, 275 (1986); Kentucky v. Graham, 473 U.S. 159,
3
See, e.g., 5/15/17 Order at 9–10; 8/2/17 Order at 8–9; Algal Partners, L.P. vs. Jon Freeman Eleu
Santos, et al., Civil No. 13-00562 LEK-BMK, Dkt. No. 41 (granting summary judgment in favor
of plaintiff, rejecting Mo‘i Kapu’s counterclaim alleging that title to properties should be held in
the name of the Hawaiian Kingdom and that he is a representative of the Kingdom); see also Civil
No. 13-00562, Dkt. No. 99 at 7 (Rejecting claims as frivolous and awarding attorneys’ fees to
plaintiff, holding that: “These actions, combined with [Mo‘i Kapu’s] claims regarding sovereignty
and ownership of the subject property, are so manifestly and palpably without merit, so as to
indicate bad faith on [his] part such that argument to the court is not required.”) (citation omitted).
11
166-67 (1985); Pennhurst State Sch. & Hosp. v. Halderman, 465 U.S. 89, 99 (1984);
see also Linville v. Hawaii, 874 F. Supp. 1095, 1103 (D. Haw. 1994) (State of
Hawaii has not waived its sovereign immunity for civil rights actions brought in
federal court); Sherez v. Haw. Dep’t of Educ., 396 F. Supp. 2d 1138, 1142-43 (D.
Haw. 2005) (dismissing claims against state agency and state official in his official
capacity based on Eleventh Amendment immunity). Likewise, his claims against
State of Hawaii courts, judges, and court personnel in their official capacities are
barred by the doctrine of judicial immunity. See Pierson v. Ray, 386 U.S. 547,
553-54 (1967) (“This immunity applies even when the judge is accused of acting
maliciously and corruptly, and it is not for the protection or benefit of a malicious or
corrupt judge, but for the benefit of the public, whose interest it is that the judges
should be at liberty to exercise their functions with independence and without fear of
consequences.”); Mullis v. United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Nevada, 828 F.2d 1385 (9th Cir. 1987) (explaining that court clerks have absolute
quasi-judicial immunity from damages for civil rights violations when they perform
tasks that are an integral part of the judicial process); Sharma v. Stevas, 790 F.2d
1486 (9th Cir. 1986). The claims against the immune state court defendants fail to
state a claim for relief. See 8/2/17 Order at 10–11 (dismissing identical claims with
prejudice).
12
In sum, Mo‘i Kapu again fails to state a plausible claim for relief and the SAC
is DISMISSED. Because further amendment would be futile, dismissal is without
leave to amend. Mo‘i Kapu failed to follow both the Court’s prior Orders and the
pleading requirements of Rule 8. The SAC does not clearly—if at all—allege:
exactly what each defendant did or failed to do; how the action or inaction of each
defendant is connected to the violation of Plaintiff’s rights; or what specific injury
Plaintiff suffered because of each defendant’s conduct. It is impossible to discern
how or which of Mo‘i Kapu’s allegations relate to each claim or to each defendant.
See Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678 (“[A Complaint] demands more than an unadorned, the
defendant-unlawfully-harmed-me accusation.”); Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555
(“Factual allegations must be enough to raise a right to relief above the speculative
level.”).
Mo‘i Kapu was given two prior opportunities to amend his complaint to state
a plausible claim, together with the directions on how to do so. Despite these
opportunities, he has been unable to comply. The Court therefore finds that any
further attempt to amend would be futile.
II.
The Pending Motions Are Denied
Although the SAC includes cursory references to a “Motion Moves to Strike,”
a “Motion for a . . . Preliminary ‘TRO’ Temporary Restraining Order,” a
“Permanent Injunction,” and a “Motion for Temporary Receiver,” the requests
13
amount to no more than a single reference or two in the caption of the document and
in the introduction to the SAC. See SAC at 1, 3. Mo‘i Kapu does not explain in
any detail the bases for these Motions or, in large part, the specific relief sought.
With respect to the Motion to Strike, there is no way for the Court to
determine with any certainty what he actually seeks to “strike.” He references no
pleading, document, or other matter that he would like stricken. Accordingly, the
Motion to Strike is denied.
The Motion for Preliminary and/or Permanent Injunction also fails to set forth
any cognizable claim for relief.4 He references a “threat of damages from suffering
immediate irreparable injury . . . threatened and violated for years by quiet title
action against his majesty living trust . . . the Corporate State of Hawai‘i has been
violating the living trust of King Kamehameha I for non-payments of royalty taxes.”
SAC at 3. Mo‘i Kapu fails to meet the substantive burden to justify the remedy he
seeks. A “plaintiff seeking a preliminary injunction must establish that he is likely
to succeed on the merits, that he is likely to suffer irreparable harm in the absence of
preliminary relief, that the balance of equities tips in his favor, and that an injunction
is in the public interest.” Winter v. Natural Res. Def. Council, Inc., 555 U.S. 7, 20
(2008) (citation omitted). “That is, ‘serious questions going to the merits’ and a
4
The standard for issuing a temporary restraining order (“TRO”) is identical to the standard for
issuing a preliminary injunction. See, e.g., Hawaii v. Gannett Pac. Corp., 99 F. Supp. 2d 1241,
1247 (D. Haw. 1999).
14
balance of hardships that tips sharply towards the plaintiff can support issuance of a
preliminary injunction, so long as the plaintiff also shows that there is a likelihood of
irreparable injury and that the injunction is in the public interest.” Alliance for Wild
Rockies v. Cottrell, 632 F.3d 1127, 1135 (9th Cir. 2011). Winter emphasized that
plaintiffs seeking preliminary relief must demonstrate that “irreparable injury is
likely in the absence of an injunction.” 555 U.S. at 22; see also Stormans, Inc. v.
Selecky, 586 F.3d 1109, 1127 (9th Cir. 2009).
As discussed above, Mo‘i Kapu fails to state a claim upon which relief may be
granted against any defendant. In short, nothing in the SAC demonstrates any past
or imminent future injury caused by defendants sufficient to justify the relief sought.
The allegations in the SAC present no serious question that he is in danger of
irreparable injury, that the balance of equities tips in his favor, or that an injunction
is in the public interest. Alliance for Wild Rockies, 632 F.3d at 1135.
Accordingly, the Motion for Preliminary and/or Permanent Injunction is denied.
Finally, to the extent he seeks a temporary receiver “to take possession of the
Corporate State of Hawaii check book by power of the purse, because of felonies of
war-crimes being committed by individuals by its Governor, Lieutenant Govern[or]
and Attorney General, employees of the Corporate State of Hawaii,” SAC at 15, the
request is wholly without merit. Mo’i Kapu cites no authority or basis for the
request.
15
In sum, upon careful review of the SAC, Motions and voluminous exhibits
attached thereto, the Court concludes that Mo‘i Kapu is not entitled to the relief he
seeks. Accordingly, the pending Motions are DENIED.
CONCLUSION
Based upon the foregoing, the Second Amended Complaint is DISMISSED
without further leave to amend. All pending Motions are DENIED. The clerk of
court is directed to close the case.
