| 02/03/2005 | Order/Dispositional | Filed Order Dismissing Appeal. Order Dismissing Appeal and Imposing Sanctions. On August 31, 2004, this court issued a second order to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction and why sanctions should not be imposed for appellant's failure to file an accurate docketing statement. In his second response, appellant's attorney claimed that the issues in the consolidated cases are sufficiently separate to allow for a proper appeal to this court, and apologized for his 'clerical error' in not bringing the other cases to this court's attention in his docketing statement. We conclude that this appeal is jurisdictionally defective. Accordingly, the district court's certification was an abuse of discretion. As we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, ' . . . we dismiss it.' Counsel's failure to provide complete and accurate information and documents regarding this appeal has wasted this court's valuable resources and makes the imposition of sanctions appropriate. We direct appellant's counsel, Michael C. Mills, to pay $500 in sanctions to the Supreme Court Law Library within 30 days from the date of this order and to provide proof of the payment to this court's clerk. SNP05-NB/RR/JH | 05-02183 | |
