Presently before the court is Kung & Brown’s (“K&B”) motion to enforce attorney’s
lien and for judgment of attorney’s fees against defendant Daly Management Corporation
(“Daly”). (ECF No. 84).
On November 11, 2018, K&B, as counsel for Daly, filed a notice of attorney’s lien for
$17,227.94 in unpaid services rendered in this case. (ECF No. 75). Its previous motion to
enforce attorney’s lien was denied without prejudice for failure to comply with the court’s
local rules. (ECF No. 82). K&B now moves again to enforce its attorney’s lien under NRS
18.015, which provides, in relevant part:
On motion filed by an attorney having a lien under this section, the attorney’s client
or any party who has been served with notice of the lien, shall, after 5 days’ notice
to all interested parties, adjudicate the rights of the attorney, client or other parties
and enforce the lien.

ripe for adjudication. This order shall constitute notice to all interested parties that the court

1

will adjudicate K&B’s renewed motion to enforce its attorney’s lien. Daly—or any other

2

interested party—may respond to the motion within 5 days of this order.
