Isaac ZIMMERMAN, Appellant, v. CROSSROADS COMMONS, LTD., LLC; Crossroads Commons Management, L.L.C.; Peccole-Nevada Corporation; Peccole Nevada Corporation; Sports Chalet; and Sports Chalet, L.L.C.; Sport Chalet, LLC; and Sport Chalet, Respondents.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a district court order granting a motion for attorney fees and costs. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Richard Scotti, Judge.
Review of the notice of appeal and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Although a post-judgment order awarding fees and costs is appealable as a special order after final judgment, see NRAP 3A(b)(8), it appears that the district court has not entered a final written judgment in this matter. See Lee v. GNLV Corp., 116 Nev. 424, 426, 996 P.2d 416, 417 (2000) (defining a final judgment). Specifically, as appellant acknowledges in his docketing statement, it appears that appellant's claims against the following parties remain pending in the district court: Sports Chalet, Sport Chalet LLC, and Sports Chalet, L.L.C. It also appears that the claims against Crossroads Commons Management, LLC, may remain unresolved. In the absence of a final judgment there can be no special order after final judgment. Accordingly, it appears that this court lacks jurisdiction and
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
