10/24/2003Order/ProceduralFiled Order. Regarding Transcripts. Appellant's transcript request form was filed on August 5, 2003. Appellant specifically requested court reporter Debbie Vieira to prepare and file the transcripts for proceedings conducted on December 5, 2002; December 6, 2002; and February 13, 2003. To date, Ms. Vierra has failed to file the transcripts for proceedings conducted on December 6, 2002; and February 13, 2003. We note, however, that these transcripts were included in appellant's appendix. We additionally note that because these transcripts had not been filed in the district court prior to the docketing of this appeal, their inclusion in the appendix was improper. Despite this procedural deficiency, in the interest of judicial economy we waive the requirements of NRAP 9(a), 10(b) and 30(b)(1). Accordingly, Ms. Vieira is no longer obligated to file with this court certified transcripts for proceedings conducted on December 6, 2002, and February 13, 3003. 03-17770

Because these transcripts had not been filed in the district court prior to the docketing of this appeal, their inclusion in the appendix was improper.

11/10/2003MotionFiled Motion to Extend Time. 03-18790
02/11/2004Order/ProceduralFiled Order Resolving Motion or Stipulation. The State has filed a motion to dismiss this appeal. Appellant opposes the motion. fn1[Appellant submitted a 'reply brief' in opposition to the State's motion to dismiss. The opposition is improperly entitled a 'reply brief' and is untimely. Appellant has not moved this court for permission to file an untimely opposition. In the interest of judicial economy, the clerk of this court shall file the opposition and shall correct the title of that document to reflect that it is in fact appellant's opposition to the State's motion to dismiss.] Contrary to appellant's assertion, the Nevada Rules of Appellate Procedure clearly entitle the State to file a motion to dismiss, and this court has repeatedly recognized, entertained, and resolved such motions. We have concluded that the questions raised should be considered and resolved after full briefing and after review of the record submitted by the parties. We deny the motion to dismiss. The State shall have 30 days from the date of this order to file and serve its answering brief and any additional appendix it may elect to submit. fn4[We deny as moot the State's motion for an extension of time to file the answering brief.] The State may reassert in its brief the grounds for dismissal that are urged in the instant motion. Appellant shall file and serve the reply brief within 30 days of service of the State's answering brief. 04-02675
