`
` Provide a brief description of the nature of the action and result in the district court, including
`
`the type of judgment or order being appealed and the relief granted by the district court:
`
`
`
`Plaintiff brought an action for injuries from a dog bite incident that occurred on
`
`property owned by the Khalaf Trust and managed by Anthem Realty, with tenants
`
`named France. The Frances owned the dogs. The tenants were defaulted so Plaintiff
`
`continued against Khalaf and Anthem Realty. Despite Defendants’ assertion that they
`
`did not own the dog or control the tenants, the court didn’t dismiss the claims and let
`
`the jury decide all claims. The jury found that the property management company were
`
`liable for the Plaintiff’s injuries and awarded over $72,000 in damages. The jury did
`
`not render a verdict against the property owners and they were subsequently dismissed.
`
`Defendant management company is appealing the judgment by the jury and the denial
`
`of the requests for dismissal by the court. A prior appeal was dismissed as the Judgment
`
`by Jury Verdict had not been certified under NRCP 54(b). A Notice of Entry of Order
`
`Granting Motion for Rule 54(b) Certification of Judgment was entered on March 25,
`
`2025.
`
`11.
`
` Indicate whether the case has previously been the subject of an appeal to or original writ
`
`proceeding in the Supreme Court and, if so, the caption and Supreme Court docket number of the
`
`prior proceeding:
`
`An appeal of the Judgment was previously filed in the Nevada Supreme Court and assigned
`
`docketing number 88492.
