The opinion

CATTANI, J.,

specially concurring.

¶21 I concur in the decision of the court that Husband timely appealed from the family court’s three rulings. I write separately to express my view that, until the Arizona Supreme Court resolves the conflict between the Ghadimi and Reeck decisions, an appellant who has complied with either of those rulings should be deemed to have satisfied the timeliness requirement for establishing jurisdiction in this court.
