Respondents.
ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE
This is a pro se appeal from a district court order granting
summary judgment. 1 Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County;
Carolyn Ellsworth, Judge.
Appellant challenges the district court's summary judgment,
giving full faith and credit to a Virginia judgment. Having considered
appellant's pro se appeal statement and the record on appeal, we conclude
that the district court did not err in granting summary judgment. Wood v.
Safeway, Inc., 121 Nev. 724, 729, 121 P.3d 1026, 1029 (2005) (holding that
summary judgment is appropriate if the pleadings and other evidence on
file, viewed in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party,
demonstrate that no genuine issue of material fact remains in dispute and
that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law). "The
lAppellant Paul S. Ledoux and respondents' stipulation to dismiss
this appeal as to Paul S. Ledoux, only, is approved. Accordingly, we
dismiss this appeal as to appellant Paul S. Ledoux, only, with each party
to bear their own costs and attorney fees. NRAP 42(b).

full faith and credit clause of the United States Constitution requires that
a final judgment entered in a sister state must be respected by the courts
of this state absent a showing of fraud, lack of due process or lack of
jurisdiction in the rendering state." Rosenstein v. Steele, 103 Nev. 571,
573, 747 P.2d 230, 231 (1987). Appellant presents no arguments
regarding why the Virginia judgment should not be given full faith and
credit, and we can find none in the record on appea1. 2 Accordingly, we
conclude that the district court properly granted summary judgment and
enforced the Virginia judgment, and we
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
