Ronni COUNCIL, an Individual; Organized Rarma, LLC, a Nevada Limited Liability Company; Alchemy, LLC, a Nevada Limited Liability Company; Rathleen Gillespie, an Individual; and Driver Driver, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, Respondents.

No. 80197

Decided: March 10, 2020

Kung & Brown McDonald Carano LLP/Las Vegas Garman Turner Gordon Melanie Hill Law PLLC

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court order granting a motion to strike an attorney’s lien and from a stipulated judgment. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Mark R. Denton, Judge.

Initial review of the docketing statement and documents before this court revealed a potential jurisdictional defect. It appeared that appellant was not a party to the underlying proceedings and thus lacked standing to appeal. See NRAP 3A(a) (allowing an aggrieved party to appeal); Albert D. Massi, Ltd. v. Bellmyre, 111 Nev. 1520, 908 P.2d 705 (1995) (concluding that an attorney was not a party to his client’s case and did not have standing to appeal an order determining his attorney’s lien). In response, appellant concedes that it lacks standing to prosecute this appeal and agrees to the dismissal of this appeal. Accordingly, as appellant lacks standing to appeal, this court

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
