<br /> County employ for even a millisecond? Did you leave from the County Clerk’s <br /> office and then immediately, and then just transfer directly over to the Prosecuting <br /> Attorney’s office or was there a definitive separation in your employ? <br /> <br />Ms. Kawauchi: My term as County Clerk ended on or about December 6, 2012 and I <br /> started the Prosecutor’s Office on or about December 10. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: Okay. So if there was, so for me, see here’s the question, if she had not actually, <br /> if there had been no separation, this is hypothetically, if there had been no <br /> separation in her County employ, then I think we would’ve had to consider the <br /> fact might have also considered the rest of that employ. <br /> <br />Mr. Henricks: I disagree. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: That’s fine. Okay, but that, as it turns out is not the situation here. <br /> <br />Mr. Henricks: Well, the reason is they’re completely separate jobs taken by completely separate <br /> entities. She has to be appointed by different persons to be in either other job so I <br /> don’t think they’re in any way connected in any way, shape or form. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: The good thing is we don’t have to have that conversation today. <br /> <br />Mr. Henricks: We won’t. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: The fact is that she didn’t, she had a separation in service, if you will… <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: I agree. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: …and it’s in within the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office that we’re talking about. <br /> So, the question is that it seems that we’re looking at is there’s, did any of her <br /> performance in the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office have anything to do with this <br /> particular matter before the Windward Planning Commission. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: The question is to you. <br /> <br />Ms. Kawauchi: No. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: And so I guess the question then for Mr. Kanuha is you have a different <br /> perspective on that? <br /> <br />Mr. Kanuha: No, no we don’t. The Planning Commission and our office just wanted to make <br /> sure because the situation in which she’s representing her client before the <br /> Windward Planning Commission may or may not go into quasi judicial contested <br /> case proceeding so we just wanted to insure that there was an abundance of <br /> caution that should that proceeding go forward that at some point in time that it <br /> wouldn’t be tainted, the whole proceeding wouldn’t be tainted. <br /> <br /> <br />7 <br /> <br />
