                                  ORDER OF REVERSAL AND REMAND
                             This is an appeal from a district court order, certified as final
                 under NRCP 54(b), granting a motion to dismiss in a quiet title action.
                 Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Michelle Leavitt, Judge.
                             The district court granted respondent's motion to dismiss,
                 concluding that appellant had failed to state a viable claim for relief
                 because La Quinta Condominiums' nonjudicial foreclosure sale could not,
                 as a matter of law, extinguish respondent's deed of trust. In SFR
                 Investments Pool 1, LLC v. U.S. Bank, N.A.,     130 Nev., Adv. Op. 75, 334
                 P.3d 408 (2014), this court decided that a common-interest community
                 association's NRS 116.3116(2) superpriority lien has true priority over a
                 first security interest, and the association may nonjudicially foreclose on
                 that lien. Thus, the district court's decision was based on an erroneous
