Appellant Ms Ponto. In this case, the district court determined that smissal of the dissolution." While the district court appears to have applied a judgment-lien theory to appellant's motion, the facts of this case more appropriately support the establishment of a cause-of-action lien: (1) appellant was retained by respondent-wife from September 2002 through November 2003; (2) the dissolution proceeding was commenced on October 16, 2002; (3) appellant filed her notice of attorney lien on January 8, 2004; and (4) respondents reconciled and stipulated to dismiss the proceeding on May 26, 2004. Thus, appellant filed her notice of attorney lien before the proceeding was dismissed. Because a cause-of-action lien arises upon commencement of the proceedings, exists until it is satisfied, and is not extinguished by entry of judgment, we conclude that the district court erred in denying appellant's request to establish an attorney lien in this case.
