ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from a district court order adjudicating an
attorney's lien and awarding attorney fees. Eighth Judicial District Court,
Family Court Division, Clark County; Cheryl B. Moss, Judge.
Initial review of the docketing statement and documents before
this court reveled a potential jurisdictional defect. It appeared that the
challenged order is not appealable as a final judgment under NRAP 3A(b)(1)
because it does not resolve any claims pending in the underlying district
court case. See Lee v. GNLV Corp.,
(2000) (defining a final judgment). In response, appellant asserts that the
order is final with respect to the attorney fee issue and the remaining issues
pending in the divorce action are collateral to that issue.
A final judgment is one that resolves all issues presented in a
matter, leaving nothing for the district court's future consideration except
post-judgment issues.
Appellant acknowledges in her response that the
divorce action remains pending in the district court. Thus, the challenged
order is not a final judgment. As no other statue or court rules appears to
allow an appeal from the challenged order, see Brown v. MHC Stagecoach,
LLC,
(2013) (this court "may only
