HARRIS LAW FIRM, LLP, A NEVADA LIMITED LIABILITY PARTNERSHIP, Appellant, v. STEVE DIMOPOULOS, LLC, A NEVADA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from a district court summary judgment in an action for declaratory relief regarding a retainer agreement. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Eric Johnson, Judge.
When preliminary review of the docketing statement and documents before this court revealed a jurisdictional defect, we directed appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Specifically, it appeared that the notice of appeal was prematurely filed after the timely filing of a tolling motion for reconsideration but before the tolling motion was formally resolved. See NRAP 4(a)(4), (6); AA Primo Builders, LLC v. Washington, 126 Nev. 578, 585, 245 P.3d 1190, 1195 (2010) (describing when a post-judgment motion for reconsideration carries a toiling effect under NRAP 4(a)(4)(C)). The order to show cause cautioned appellant that failure to demonstrate that this court has jurisdiction may result in the dismissal of this appeal. Appellant's response to the order to show cause was due on or before March 2, 2023.
To date, appellant has failed to respond to the order to show cause or to otherwise demonstrate that this court has jurisdiction to consider this appeal. Accordingly, it appears that we lack jurisdiction and we,
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
