Garber v. National Union Fire Insurance Co. of Pittsburgh

281 F. App'x 687, 281 Fed. Appx. 687, 281 F. App’x 687, 2008 U.S. App. LEXIS 12177, 2008 WL 2276661
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit·Decided June 3, 2008·No. No. 06-15570·Published

Opinion

MEMORANDUM *

The Garbers did not file their notice of appeal within 30 days after the judgment in the district court was entered, as required by Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(1)(A). National Union’s motion to amend the district court order did not toll the thirty day time limit because the motion addressed a collateral and independent issue from the merits of the case.1

[688] Even if the appeal was not filed late, the bankruptcy court did not abuse its discretion by authorizing payment to National Union from the bankruptcy estate nunc pro tunc. National Union satisfactorily explained its failure to obtain prior judicial approval and demonstrated that its services benefitted the bankrupt estate in a significant manner.2

DISMISSED.
