These are appeals from an order denying an injunction, and from an order and an amended order awarding attorney fees. Our preliminary review of the docketing statements and the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(e) revealed a potential jurisdictional defect in Docket No. 43651. Accordingly, we directed appellants to show cause why their appeal in Docket No. 43651 should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. In response, appellants have provided this court with district court orders entered on September 8, 2003 and October 21, 2004, which collectively resolve the outstanding claims mentioned above. And on November 1, 2004, appellants filed a timely amended notice of appeal in the district court. Accordingly, as appellants have cured the jurisdictional defect, this appeal shall proceed. As these matters arise from the same underlying case, we grant appellants' September 3, 2004 motion to consolidate, and hereby consolidate these appeals. Appellants shall have thirty days from the date of this order in which to file one opening brief and appendix incorporating both appeals. Briefing shall thereafter proceed in accordance with NRAP 31(a)(1). Nos. 42857/43651. (04-22351) | 04-22351 | |
