ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court order granting a motion to strike an attorney's lien and from a stipulated judgment. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Mark R. Denton, Judge. Initial review of the docketing statement and documentsbfore this court revealed a potential jurisdictional defect. It appeared that appellant was not a party to the underlying proceedings and thus lacked standing to appeal. See NRAP 3A(a) (allowing an aggrieved party to appeal); Albert D. Massi, Ltd. v. Bellmyre, 111 Nev. 1520, 908 P.2d 705 (1995) (concluding that an attorney was not a party to his client's case and did not have standing to appeal an order determining his attorney's lien). In response, appellant concedes that it lacks standing to prosecute this

0 -0944418 appeal and agrees to the dismissal of this appeal. Accordingly, as appellant lacks standing to appeal, this court ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
