King Vs. King (Child Custody)

Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

CHERYL MARIE KING, No. 82120 Appellant, vs. JOSHUA RYAN LITTLE BEAR KING, Respondent.

FILED JAN 08 2021 ELIZABETH A. BROWN CLERK OF SUPREME COURT BY S• DEP CLERK

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is an appeal from a judgment in a child custody matter.

Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Court Division, Clark County; Rebecca Burton, Judge.

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the notice of appeal appears to have been prematurely filed under NRAP 4(a) because there is a pending motion to reconsider in the district court. This court may dismiss as premature a notice of appeal filed before entry of the written disposition of the last remaining timely motion listed in NRAP 4(a)(4). See AA Primo Builders, LLC u. Washington, 126 Nev. 578, 585, 245 P.3d 1190, 1195 (2010) (explaining when a motion for reconsideration has tolling effect SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA (0) 1947/, 21-00537 • L•• under NRAP 4(a)(4)(C)); NRAP 4(a)(6). We conclude that this court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal and accordingly we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.1
