ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

The parties have filed a stipulation to stay the appellate proceedings while the district court resolves a motion for reconsideration that appellant filed before filing the notice of appeal. However, it appears that this court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal. NRAP 4(a)(2). A timely tolling motion such as a motion for reconsideration terminates the 30-day appeal period, and a notice of appeal is of no effect if it is filed after such a tolling motion is filed but before the district court enters a written order finally resolving the motion. See NRAP 4(a)(2) ; AA Primo Builders, LLC v. Washington , 126 Nev. 578, 585, 245 P.3d 1190, 1195 (2010) (recognizing that a timely-filed post judgment motion for reconsideration that seeks a substantive change to the challenged order qualifies as a tolling motion under NRCP 59(e) and NRAP 4(a)(4) ). Once the district court has resolved the motion for reconsideration, any aggrieved party may file a new notice of appeal. At this point, however, this court lacks jurisdiction and

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.

This court takes no action in regard to the stipulation to stay these proceedings.
