Christine Wendel, in pro. per., for Cross-defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Cross-complainant and Respondent.
__________
Christine Wendel appealed from the May 7, 2013 order appointing a receiver in a cross-action brought against her by Cynthia Seablom and an underlying action between CPS Signage & Marketing Corporation, a company affiliated with Wendel, and Seablom. Wendel contends that the May 7, 2013 order is void because the trial court did not direct the posting of a bond along with the receiver appointment. The court, however, entered a subsequent order on May 20, 2013, in which it did direct the posting of a bond as a condition of the receiver appointment. Wendel maintains that the court lacked jurisdiction to enter the May 20, 2013 order because she already had filed a notice of appeal from the May 7, 2013 order. But Wendel did not appeal from the May 20, 2013 order and accordingly has no basis to challenge it. The May 20, 2013 order thus is intact and directs the posting of a bond, which is Wendel's only complaint about the May 7, 2013 order. As a result, Wendel's appeal from the May 7, 2013 order based on the failure to direct the posting of a bond is moot.
DISPOSITION
The appeal is dismissed.
