03/13/2026	Order/Procedural	Filed Order to File Amended Docketing Statement and Regarding Caption. Review of appellants' docketing statement reveals that it is deficient. In particular, appellants have not provided an appropriate response to item 22(b) or a complete response to item 24. This court further notes that appellants' case appeal statement identifies Best Home Care at Wyoming LLC (Best) as an appellant in this matter, but Best is not listed as an appellant in the notices of appeal or docketing statement. The district court docket entries indicate that Best was dismissed as a defendant via the July 11, 2018, notice of dismissal. It thus appears that Best is not a proper appellant in this matter and should be removed from the caption of this appeal. Appellants shall have 14 days from the date of this order to file and serve an amended docketing statement that contains complete responses to all items and has copies of all required documents attached. Within the same time period, appellants shall inform this court, in writing, if they object to the removal of Best as an appellant in this matter. (SC)		26-11971

(SC)		26-21443
05/18/2026	Docketing Statement	Filed Appellant's Second Amended Docketing Statement Civil Appeals (SC)		26-22778
