| 06/28/2001 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order. On February 28, 2001, respondent filed a motion to dismiss this appeal. On March 12, 2001, appellant Todd Aaron Lofink submitted a proper person opposition to respondent's motion to dismiss. Because we review appellant's opposition on the merits, we direct the clerk to file the opposition received on March 12, 2001. On April 23, 2001, attorney James S. Kent filed a notice of appearance as counsel for appellant and also submitted an opposition to respondent's February 28, 2001, motion to dismiss. We direct the clerk to file the opposition received on April 23, 2001. Because appellant has retained new counsel, we conclude that dismissal of this appeal as abandoned is not warranted at this time. We deny respondent's February 28, 2001, motion to dismiss. Appellant shall have 10 days from the date of this order to comply with NRAP 9(a) and 90 days to file and serve the opening brief and appendix. Thereafter, briefing shall proceed in accordance with NRAP 31(a)(2). In appellant's counsel's opposition, Mr. Kent requests that this court return the files to the district court. A review of our records indicates that the district court has not transmitted the district court files to this court. All district court files pertaining to this appeal should be available from the district court. | | 01-11007 |
