ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from a district court order dismissing a tort action. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Valorie Vega, Judge.
Respondents' motion to dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction, in which other respondents joined, is unopposed. Accordingly, we grant the motion and
We note that respondents Lynda McCloskey, Katie Maley, and Jeffrey Krueger filed suggestions of bankruptcy on August 24, 2011. This order appears to fall within the exception to the automatic stay noted on page 7(iii) of the bankruptcy court's June 29, 2011, order, allowing the insurance company to “obtain dismissal of actions against any Insured Debtor when that dismissal does not involve any finding of liability or payment of any consideration.” Additionally, in light of this order, appellant's September 16, 2011, motion to hold this appeal in abeyance pending resolution of the motion to dismiss and the suggestions of bankruptcy is denied as moot.
