| 10/27/2025 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order Imposing Sanctions. Based on this series of events, the settlement judge recommended the imposition of a sanction in the amount of $242.96 against respondent to be paid directly to appellant to reimburse appellant for the non-refundable airline ticket. On December 12, 2024, this court entered an order directing respondent to show cause why the recommended sanction should not be imposed. Respondent has filed a response to that order, an errata to the response, and an amended response. Appellant has filed a motion for leave to file a response to respondent's response. Respondent opposes the motion. The motion to file a response to respondent's response is denied. We conclude this conduct warrants the imposition of sanctions under NRAP 16(j). Respondent Daniel Gelbman shall have 30 days from the date of this order to pay the sum of $242.96 to appellant Hope Backman. A25-RP/LB/LS (SC) | | 25-46639

| 03/03/2026 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order Consolidating Appeals. This court concludes that consolidation of these appeals is warranted and hereby consolidates these appeals. Nos. 88482/91070. (COA) | | 26-09773
|
| 03/25/2026 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order. These are consolidated appeals in a child custody matter. In a previous appeal before this court with the same parties, Docket no. 86396-COA, the parties were appointed pro bono counsel following a referral to the pro bono appellate program developed by the Pro Bono Committee of the Appellate Litigation Section of the State Bar of Nevada and the Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada. Such appointment generally guarantees oral argument. In this matter, it is unclear if the counsel representing either party remains appointed as part of that program. We therefore direct both parties, within 14 days of the date of this order, to file and serve a response stating whether they are appointed counsel as discussed above, and whether oral argument is warranted in these consolidated appeals.
