| 01/21/1998 | Order/Procedural | Filed Case Processing Order. In each of the above-entitled appeals, counsel for appellant has filed a transcript request form and a designation of record. Appellant's designations of the record on appeal filed in these matters are of no effect. Further, we note that appellant has filed non-conforming transcript request forms.

To date, Appellant has not filed a motion to file the late docketing statement. In the interest of judicial economy, we direct the clerk to file Appellant's late docketing statement in Docket No. 30762. We elect to consolidate the above-entitled matters for the purposes of briefing and disposition and direct the appellant to file a single Opening Brief and Appendix in this consolidated matter within 20 days of the date of this order. Failure to file the Opening Brief and Appendix in accordance with this order may result in the imposition of sanctions against counsel for Appellant. On September 3, 1998, Appellant submitted a proper person motion for leave to proceed in proper person on his Petition for Writ of Mandamus submitted with the Motion. fn1[Appellant has not been granted leave to file briefs or papers herein. We have received and considered Appellant's proper person submissions.] We deny Appellant's request to proceed in proper person and direct the clerk to return, unfiled, Appellant's proper person Petition for Writ of Mandamus.

| 10/01/1999 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order. Order of Limited Remand for appointment of counsel. We are dissatisfied with Attorney Hatcher as counsel of record for Appellant in these consolidated matters and remand these matters to the district court for the limited purpose of appointing new counsel to represent Appellant within 20 days from the date of this order. The clerk of the district court shall, within 30 days from the date of this order, serve upon newly appointed counsel a copy of this order and inform the clerk of this court of the appointment. Appointed counsel shall file a notice of appearance with this court within 10 days of appointment and within 90 days from appearance with this court, serve and file a single consolidated opening brief and appendix. Thereafter, briefing shall proceed in accordance with NRAP 31(a)(1). Attorney Lizzie R. Hatcher shall, within 10 days from the date of this order, personally pay the sum of $250 to the Clark County Law Library and separately provide the clerk of this court with proof of payment of the sanction. Failure to comply with this order in a timely manner will likely result in the imposition of additional sanction, including, but not limited to, referral of this matter to the State Bar of Nevada for investigation and possible disciplinary action. Although appellant has not been granted leave to file briefs or papers, we have received and considered Appellant's submissions. In light of this order, we deny as moot Appellant's requests for relief. (Order mailed to Attorney Hatcher by regular and certified mail.) Nos. 30762 & 30779. | | |

| 12/15/2000 | Order/Dispositional | Filed Order of Affirmance.
