Kim v. Meadowood Mall Spe

Opinion

Hilton Hotels, Corp., 100 Nev. 207, 209, 678 P.2d 1152, 1153 (1984) (stating that a court cannot create finality through NRCP 54(b) certification when an order is not amenable to certification); see also ICDI Sylvan Pools, Inc. ix Workman, 107 Nev. 340, 342, 810 P.2d 1217, 1219 (1991) (noting that a party's intent not to pursue a counterclaim does not render the• claim moot or operate to formally dismiss the claim). Thus, despite the district court's attempt to create finality, NRCP 54(b) certification was improper, and respondent's counterclaims remain pending below. We cautioned appellant that failure to demonstrate that this court has jurisdiction could result in this court's dismissal of this appeal. To date, appellant has not filed a timely response to this court's show cause order, which was due on October 6, 2014. Accordingly, we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
