order, appellant filed a motion for reconsideration of that decision, which
tolls the time for filing a notice of appeal. See AA Primo Builders, LLC v.
Washington, 126 Nev. „ 245 P.3d 1190, 1192-93 (2010) (recognizing
that a timely post-judgment motion for reconsideration that seeks a
substantive change to the judgment tolls the time to file a notice of
appeal). To date, this motion has not been resolved by the district court,
and thus, the notice of appeal is premature as it did not confer jurisdiction
upon this court. See NRAP 4(a)(6).
For the reasons set forth above, we conclude that we lack
jurisdiction over this matter and dismiss this appeal. In light of this
conclusion, we deny as moot appellant's August 18, 2014, motion for leave
to file an opening brief. The clerk of this court shall therefore return,
unfiled, the proposed opening brief attached to appellant's motion.
It is so ORDERED.
