- Haw. Rev. Stat. § 663-31(a)
- Damage caps
- Hawaii caps pain-and-suffering damages at $375,000, but the cap does not apply to products-liability claims, toxic and environmental torts, or most motor-vehicle claims. The statutory term is narrower than non-economic damages generally.
- Haw. Rev. Stat. §§ 663-8.7, 663-10.9
