GURINDER KAUR AND JAHAGIR KAUR, Appellants, v. THE COOPER CASTLE LAW FIRM, LLC; FEDERAL HOME LOAN MORTGAGE CORPORATION, AND BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., Respondents.


An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

Having reviewed the documents submitted to this court by the district court, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal. Although appellant filed a tolling motion in the district court, appellant had ten days from the date of service of notice of entry of the final judgment, plus an additional three days for mailing, to file his tolling motion. NRCP 6(e). Appellant's tolling motion thus had to be filed in the district court by September 18, 2012. Appellant, however, did not file this motion until September 25, 2012. Since the motion was untimely filed, it did not toll the time to file a notice of appeal, NRAP 4(a)(4), and thus, the notice of appear filed in district court on January 3, 2013, was likewise untimely as to the final judgment. We therefore lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal. See Healy v. Volkswagenwerk, 103 Nev. 329, 741 P.2d 432 (1987) (noting that an untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court). Accordingly, we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
