Lead Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Robert S. Wolkin filed an interpleader action in federal district court to determine all claims to $123,910.24 he held in his client trust fund. David Bartoli and Janet Kennington appeal from the district court’s judgment awarding the funds held in interpleader to Southwest Resource Preservation, Inc., with appropriate attorney fees to Wolkin. Because Bartoli and Kennington’s brief fails to comply with the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, we dismiss the appeal.
*632 Bartoli and Kenningtoris brief does not include a jurisdictional statement or a statement of the standard of review, as required by Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 28(a)(4)(A) and (a)(9)(B), as well as 9th Cir. Rules 28-2.2 and 28-2.5. The excerpt of record omits crucial documents, including the district court’s findings of fact and the trial transcript, in violation of Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 10(b)(2) and Ninth Circuit Rule 30-1.3(a)(iv). The briefs references to the record do not provide page numbers for the excerpts, and refer to documents not included in the excerpts, in violation of Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 28(a)(7) and Ninth Circuit Rule 28-2.8.
