Appellant shall have 30 days from the date of this order to file and serve an opening brief.

The parties may file a joint appendix containing any portions of the record before the U.S. District Court that are necessary to this court's resolution of the certified questions. Lastly, in any proceeding under NRAP 5, fees "shall be the same as in civil appeals . . . and shall be equally divided between the parties unless otherwise ordered by the certifying court." NRAP 5(e). The U.S. District Court's order does not address the payment of this court's fees. Accordingly, appellant and Ridge Tool Company shall each tender to the clerk of this court, within 14 days from the date of this order, the sum of $125, representing half of the filing fee. fn1[Although Home Depot is listed as a respondent, it does not appear that Home Depot is involved with the issues that generated the certified question.
