Opinion
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA
SFR INVESTMENTS POOL 1, LLC, No. 63795 Appellant, vs. NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE, LLC F/KJA FILED CENTEX HOME EQUITY MORTGAGE, NOV 1 4 2014 LLC, A DELAWARE LIMITED TRACE K. t INDEMAN LIABILITY COMPANY, CLER ,K,QF SUPREME COURT 1::-/5LYi.,- -4CLERK -4-1`4A - Resnondent. DEPUTY
ORDER VACATING AND REMANDING This is an appeal from a district court order denying a preliminary injunction in a quiet title action. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Joanna Kishner, Judge.
The district court denied SFR Investments' preliminary injunction motion, finding that SFR Investments failed to demonstrate a reasonable likelihood of success on the merits because "it has not shown that it is a bona fide purchaser and in the absence of such a determination it has not shown that Defendant was given due process and appropriate notice prior to any claim that its security interest was being eliminated." This court's recent disposition in SFR Investments Pool I, LLC v. U.S. Bank, N.A., 130 Nev. 334 P.3d 408 (2014), decides that a common- interest community association's NRS 116.3116(2) superpriority lien has true priority over a first security interest, and the association may nonjudicially foreclose on that lien. Thus, the district court's decision, insofar as it was based on the conclusion that SFR Investments had record notice of a first-priority security interest and did not recognize the complaint's factual allegations as true, was based on an erroneous interpretation of the controlling law. Accordingly, we SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
(0)1947A ae, VACATE the order denying preliminary injunctive relief AND REMAND this matter to the district court for further proceedings consistent with this order.

Douglas . D.7% CHERRY, J., concurring: For the reasons stated in the SFR Investments Pool 1, LLC v. U.S. Bank, N.A., 130 Nev. , 334 P.3d 408 (2014), dissent, I disagree that respondent lost its lien priority by virtue of the homeowners association's nonjudicial foreclosure sale. I recognize, however, that SFR Investments is now the controlling law and, thusly, concur in the disposition of this appeal.
