| 06/09/2003 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order/Briefing Schedule. Order Directing Full Briefing and Substituting Counsel for Appellant. Although this appeal was docketed in this court as a fast track appeal, this court has now concluded that full briefing is warranted. This appeal shall hereafter proceed in accordance with the rules of appellate procedure governing criminal appeals that are not subject to NRAP 3C. fn1[We suspend the requirement in NRAP 14 regarding the filing of the docketing statement. We caution appellant's new counsel David Lee Phillips that he must fully comply with this court's remaining rules governing the litigation of criminal appeals.] Appellant's retained counsel, attorney Liborius Agwara, has filed a document in this court purporting to substitute attorney David Lee Phillips as appellate counsel in the place and stead of Agwara. The motion is granted. Attorney David Lee Phillips shall hereafter proceed as sole counsel of record for appellant in this matter. Attorney Phillips shall have 10 days from the date of this order to file and serve on the court reporter and all parties a transcript request form pursuant to NRAP 9(a) or notify this court within that same period that no transcripts are necessary. fn3[On March 24, 2003, this court received and filed a notice from the court reporter notifying this court that appellant is unable to pay for the transcripts, and therefore, none have been prepared. If appellant is indigent, attorney Phillips may request the district court to permit appellant to proceed in forma pauperis. Otherwise, appellant must pay the cost of the preparation of any transcripts needed in this appeal.] Attorney Phillips shall have to and including August 4, 2003, to file and serve the opening brief and appendix. Thereafter, briefing shall proceed in accordance with NRAP 31(a)(1). | | 03-09533 |

| 08/11/2003 | Motion | Filed Motion. Motion for Bond Pending Appeal. | | 03-13355 |
| 10/15/2003 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order Denying Motion. for Bail and directing counsel to file Opening Brief and Appendix. On August 11, 2003, appellant filed a motion in this court seeking bail pending appeal. We conclude that appellant has failed to demonstrate that this court should exercise its independent judgment and depart from the district court's decisions. Accordingly, we deny the motion for bail pending appeal. On June 9, 2003, this court entered an order substituting attorney David Lee Phillips as new counsel for appellant. fm2[Phillips requested preparation of specified transcripts on June 20, 2003. On July 7, 2003, however, this court received and filed a second notice from the court reporter stating that appellant is unable to pay the costs of the transcripts and that, therefore, none have been prepared. We again note that if appellant is indigent, attorney Phillips may move the district court to permit appellant to proceed in forma pauperis; otherwise, appellant must pay the costs of any transcripts necessary for this appeal.] To date, Phillips has not complied with this court's order, and the opening brief and appendix are over two months overdue. This court is not unfamiliar with Mr. Phillips' history of dilatory conduct and failure to communicate to this court the reasons for the delay in his prosecution of criminal appeals. We caution Phillips that his continued failure to abide by and respect this court's rules and orders may have severe consequences. Attorney Phillips shall have to and including October 24, 2003, to file and serve the opening brief and appendix or show cause why he should not be held in contempt of this court. | | 03-17102 |

Appellant has moved for reconsideration of this court's order of October 15, 2003, denying his motion for bail pending appeal. We conclude reconsideration of our prior order is not warranted. We deny the motion for reconsideration. We grant the motion of appellant for an extension of time to file the opening brief and appendix. Appellant shall have to and including December 4, 2003, to file and serve the opening brief and appendix. | | 03-18659 |
