"We are devastated by the loss of such a young, intelligent, hard- working, and dedicated jurist," said Chief Justice Ronald Moon. "We extend our sincere condolences to his wife, Evva, and their two sons, Ethan and Evan.
"He will be sorely missed."
Lim, a graduate of Farrington High School, Harvard College and Stanford Law School, was appointed by then-Gov. Ben Cayetano in 1999 to a 10-year term on the appeals court.
He was one of six judges on the apellate panel.
Moon appointed Lim a District Family Court judge for Honolulu in 1993. Cayetano appointed him a Circuit Court judge in 1995 and four years later later named him to the Court of Appeals.
