LYRIC ARBOR DRIVE TRUST v. BANK OF AMERICA (2018)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court summary judgment, certified as final under NRCP 54(b), in an action relating to real property. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Linda Marie Bell, Judge.

Our preliminary review of the documents before this court revealed a potential jurisdictional defect. Specifically, it appeared that the NRCP 54(b) certification was improper because no party has been completely removed from the action, and the certification did not expressly direct entry of judgment. See NRCP 54(b); Mallin v. Farmers Ins. Exch., 106 Nev. 606, 797 P.2d 978 (1990). Accordingly, we directed appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

In response to our order to show cause, appellant states that there are “multiple issues that need to be addressed in the lower court,” and that appellant “has no objection to this Court dismissing this appeal for lack of jurisdiction․” As it appears that no final judgment has been entered below, we lack jurisdiction and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
