Laws Behind Kihei 24 Hour Booking
Access to Kihei 24 hour booking data sits inside two state laws. The Uniform Information Practices Act in HRS chapter 92F is the open records rule. It covers MPD arrest logs, booking reports, and related police files. The Hawaii Revised Statutes chapter 846 sets rules for criminal history record checks through HCJDC.
Under UIPA, MPD has ten working days to answer a Kihei 24 hour booking records request. For bigger requests, the office can extend that by twenty more working days, with written notice. Juvenile bookings stay sealed. Arrests with no charges filed must come off the public record.
The 48 hour charge rule means police must charge a person within two days of arrest or release them. A Kihei 24 hour booking file is built in that window. HRS § 846-14 makes improper sharing of criminal history data a misdemeanor. The Department of Public Safety runs MCCC and handles all state custody tied to a Kihei booking.
