The correct answer is: Yes

Yes, Hawaii does have a red flag law that allows for the temporary removal of firearms from someone deemed to be a danger to themselves or others. This law, known as an Extreme Risk Protective Order (ERPO) in Hawaii, enables family members, household members, and law enforcement to petition the court for the temporary removal of firearms from individuals who are considered a risk of causing harm to themselves or others. This measure is intended to prevent potential tragedies by temporarily restricting access to firearms for individuals in crisis.
