In plain language
This is a one-paragraph order from the Nevada Supreme Court closing out an appeal in a child custody case. The person who started the appeal, Jazleen Gamboa, asked the court to dismiss her own appeal voluntarily. The court granted that request and dismissed the appeal. The order does not discuss the underlying custody dispute, the trial court's ruling, or any legal issues on the merits. It is purely an administrative closure of the appeal at the appellant's request.
