AND JAMI SEEBY-ALEGRIA, AN
INDIVIDUAL,
vs.
Appellants, FILED
GREEN TREE SERVICING, LLC, FEB 1 8 2016
Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from an order granting a petition for judicial
review in a foreclosure mediation matter. Second Judicial District Court,
Washoe County; Elliott A. Sattler, Judge. Appellants are proceeding in
pro se pursuant to this court's civil pilot program for litigants proceeding
without counsel.
On April 6, 2015, this court entered an order granting the
motion of appellants' counsel, Wayne M. Pressel, to withdraw. We directed
appellants to inform this court whether they intend to retain new counsel,
or intend to proceed in pro se pursuant to this court's civil pilot program
for litigants proceeding without counsel. Appellants have since sought
several extensions of time to respond to our order, explaining that they
have been unable to secure the return of their case file from Mr. Pressel
and have therefore been unable to retain new counsel. Appellants have
attached to their motions correspondence from Mr. Pressel indicating his
agreement to return the file within 7 days. On September 21, 2015,
appellants filed another motion for an open extension of time, again
asserting that Mr. Pressel has not returned the file.

On December 3, 2015, this court entered an order directing
appellants to file a status report within 11 days, indicating (1) whether
they have received their case file from their former counsel Wayne M.
Pressel; and (2) whether they intend to proceed in this appeal in pro se or
intend to hire new counsel. Appellants failed to respond to our order. On
January 15, 2016, we entered another order directing appellants to
provide the status report within 11 days. We cautioned appellants that
failure to file the status report would result in dismissal of this appeal as
abandoned. To date, appellants have not filed the status report.
Accordingly, we conclude that appellants have abandoned this appeal, and
we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED. 1
