10/22/2012Order/ProceduralFiled Order. The clerk of this court is directed to administratively close the appeal pending in Docket No. 61626 and to transfer the September 5, 2012, notice of appeal filed under that docket number to Docket No. 61415. District Court: Record on Appeal due: 30 days. With regard to the bonds for costs on appeal, requests to vary the amount of the $500 bond required to cover costs on appeal must be made in the district court. Appellant's motion to defer payment of that bond is denied. We grant appellant's motion in part, for the limited purpose of allowing appellant to file an opening brief. Appellant: Opening Brief due: 50 days. Respondent need not file an answering brief unless directed to do so by this court. We conclude that a stay is not warranted and we therefore deny appellant's motion for a stay. Having considered the motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we conclude that it should be denied. Fn1[In light of this order, we deny as moot all requests for relief pending in Docket No. 61626.] Fn2[On September 12, 2012, appellant filed in Docket No. 61415 a motion seeking to consolidate Docket No. 61415 and 61626 and to defer payment of the filing fee and cost bond in Docket No. 61626. As we have directed that the appeal pending in Docket No. 61626 be administratively closed, this motion is denied as moot.] Fn4[The clerk of this court is directed to file appellant's reply, which was provisionally received in this court on September 20, 2012, and appellant's supplemental reply, which was provisionally received on September 26, 2012. As we have directed the filing of these documents, we deny as moot appellant's October 1, 2012, motion to waive deficiency in reply brief or to authorize the filings of an amended reply brief.] Fn5[The clerk of this court is directed to file appellant's motion, which was provisionally received in this court on September 26, 2012.] Fn6[With regard to the relief requested by appellant through a letter filed in this court on September 4, 2012.

"We affirm the district court's conclusion that the Nevada divorce decree was the controlling child support order under UIFSA; its decisions to not apply judicial estoppel, waiver, or prevention; and its determination that the awards of attorney fees made prior to Vaile II remained valid. And we reverse that portion of the district court's order calculating child support arrearages as well as the resulting penalties and interest based on the arrearages calculations and remand for further proceedings consistent with this order. We likewise reverse and remand with regard to the award of $57,483.38 in post-Vaile II attorney fees, but affirm the $20,000 award of attorney fees based on Vaile's failure to appear at a hearing. Finally, we dismiss Vaile's appeals for lack of jurisdiction to the extent he challenges the district court's contempt determinations and the imposition of sanctions based on those determinations." fn16[In light of this order, we deny as moot any remaining requests for relief pending in these consolidated appeals.] Court of Appeals-MG/JT/AS Nos. 61415/62797.
