| 08/01/2002 | Order/Procedural | Filed Case Processing Order. Order Allowing Appeal to Proceed and Dismissing Cross-Appeal. In response to our March 26, 2002 show cause order, the parties obtained from the district court an order dismissing the claims relating to the eighteen defendants. This order rendered the district court judgment final and appealable. But only appellant Clark County filed an amended notice of appeal. The time in which to file an amended notice of appeal on the cross-appeal expired on May 15, 2002. Consequently, we lack jurisdiction over the cross-appeal, and we order it dismissed. We direct the clerk of this court to strike the following briefs: Respondent/cross-appellant Pyles' September 12, 2001 opening brief; Respondent/cross-appellant Pyles' January 18, 2002 reply brief; Appellant/cross-respondent Clark County's December 7, 2001 reply brief to respondent/cross-appellant Pyles' November 8, 2001 answering brief; and portions of briefs: see order for portions of briefs stricken. We further direct the clerk of this court to remove the cross-appeal from the caption on this court's docket. We allow Clark County's appeal to proceed; Clark County shall have 30 days from this order's date to file a new reply brief to respondent/cross-appellant Pyles' November 8, 2001 answering brief. fn5[The reply brief shall not address any of the issues that were presented by the cross-appeal. | | 02-13187
