03/03/2026Order/ProceduralFiled Order Consolidating Appeals. This court concludes that consolidation of these appeals is warranted and hereby consolidates these appeals. Nos. 88482/91070. (COA)26-09773
03/25/2026Order/ProceduralFiled 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. Nos. 88482/91070. (COA)26-13813
