Hawaii Supreme Court March 20, 1985, NO. 9522 (Tanele v. Sunn)

Per Curiam.

Makakona Tanele applied for general assistance benefits pursuant to Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) § 346-71(b). The Department of Social Services and Housing (DSSH) found that Tanele was not medically disabled to engage in a substantial gainful employment, and concluded that Tanele was not qualified to receive benefits. A fair hearing officer upheld DSSH’s decision.
