Hawaii Early termination (DV/military)

Can a tenant break a lease early for domestic violence or military service in Hawaii?

Domestic-violence victims can end a lease of one year or less without penalty. They must give at least 14 days' notice with documentation, within 90 days of the abuse (§ 521-80). Servicemembers ordered into on-post quarters can end a lease of one year or less with 30 days' written notice, or a month-to-month tenancy with 15 days' notice (§ 521-83).
