9 v.

10 MAHOGANY MEADOWS AVENUE TRUST, et al., 11 Defendant(s). 12

13 Presently before the court is the matter of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. Mahogany Meadows 14 Avenue Trust, et al., case number 2:17-cv-01469-JCM-VCF. On March 16, 2018, the court 15 granted defendant Mahogany Meadows Avenue Trust’s motion to dismiss (ECF No. 30) and, on 16 November 6, 2018, denied plaintiff Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.’s motion to reconsider that order 17 (ECF No. 34). Wells Fargo appealed, and that appeal remains pending. (ECF No. 35; 36). 18 The remaining defendants—Copper Creek Homeowners Association and Hampton & 19 Hampton Collections, LLC—have been dismissed from this action pursuant to the parties’ 20 stipulations. (ECF Nos. 18; 20; 38). 21 Further, the court’s prior order dismissed all of Wells Fargo’s claims. (See ECF No. 30). 22 Indeed, if it did not, then this court’s order would have been neither final nor appealable. Thus, 23 the case should have been closed when the court adjudicated Mahogany’s motion to dismiss. 24 “The general rule is that once a notice of appeal has been filed, the lower court loses 25 jurisdiction over the subject matter of the appeal.” Bennett v. Gemmill (In re. Combined Metals 26 Reduction Co.), 557 F.2d 179, 200 (9th Cir. 1977). Nevertheless, even after an appeal has been 27 28 1} filed, a district court “may act to assist the court of appeals in the exercise of its 2) jurisdiction.” Davis v. United States, 667 F.2d 822, 824 (9th Cir. 1982). 3 Accordingly, 4 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED that the court’s prior order 5 | (ECF No. 30) be, and the same hereby is, CORRECTED nunc pro tunc to instruct the clerk to 6 | enter judgment and close the case accordingly. 7 DATED July 15, 2020. 8 tins ©.
