Haw. R. Civ. P. 18 (2026)

Rule 18. JOINDER OF CLAIMS AND REMEDIES. (a) Joinder of claims. A party asserting a claim to relief as an original claim, counterclaim, cross-claim, or third-party claim may join, either as independent or as alternate claims as many claims, legal or equitable, as the party has against an opposing party. (b) Joinder of remedies; fraudulent conveyances. Whenever a claim is one heretofore cognizable only after another claim has been prosecuted to a conclusion, the two claims may be joined in a single action; but the court shall grant relief in that action only in accordance with the relative substantive rights of the parties. In particular, a plaintiff may state a claim for money and a claim to have set aside a conveyance fraudulent as to that plaintiff, without first having obtained a judgment establishing the claim for money. (Amended May 15, 1972, effective July 1, 1972; further amended December 7, 1999, effective January 1, 2000.)
