IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

MICHAEL J. MONA, JR., AN No. 73815 INDIVIDUAL, Appellant, vs. FAR WEST INDUSTRIES, A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION, FILE Respondent. MAR 06 2018 a9 ci BRO

DEPUTY CLERK

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from an order sustaining respondent's objection to a claim of exemption to an order determining the priority of garnishments and denying appellant's motion to discharge the garnishment. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Joseph Hardy, Jr., Judge. Respondent has moved to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. Appellant opposes the motion, and respondent has filed a reply. We agree with respondent that our holding in Settelmeyer & Sons u. Smith & Harmer, 124 Nev. 1206, 197 P.3d 1051 (2008) provides for an appeal from a final judgment in a garnishment action (see also NRS 31.460), but not from interlocutory orders that merely set the priorities or resolve a claim of exemption, such as those at issue in this appeal. It appears the

SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA ist-01,53 (0) 194/4 c7-41* district court has not yet entered a final appealable judgment; accordingly, we grant respondent's motion and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.'
