ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Because it appeared that the notice of appeal was prematurely filed, after the timely filing of tolling motions and before the resolution of those motions, this court entered an order directing appellants to show cause why the appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Appellants have filed a motion for an extension of time of 60 days to respond to the order to show cause. Appellants concede the notice of appeal was prematurely filed for the reasons this court observed but ask this court for the extension to permit the district court to consider its jurisdiction over the pending motions and to revolve those motions. The motion is denied.
The rules of appellate procedure do not anticipate that parties should file a premature notice of appeal or that a premature notice of appeal should linger indefinitely on this courts docket while the parties and the district court continue to resolve outstanding motions. NRAP 4(a)(6). This court lacks jurisdiction. Appellants may file an appeal from a final appealable order. This court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
