Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

NICHOLAS JAMES AMATRONE, No. 70660 Appellant, vs. STATE FARM FIRE AND CASUALTY; STATE FARM INSURANCE AGENCY; GREGORY A. MOORE; BELFOR FILED RESTORATION; DOUGLAS WOOD; AUG 22 2016 ROBIN SINGER; WILLIAMS TRACE K. LINDEMAN CLERK OF SUPREME COURT ELECTRICS; AND ROBERT SY ANIATRONE, DEPUTY CLERK

Respondents.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from an order granting appellant's motion for a jury trial and denying appellant's motion to add defendants. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Gloria Sturman, Judge. Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals two jurisdictional defects. Specifically, it appears that the judgment or order designated in the notice of appeal is not substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b). This court has jurisdiction to consider an appeal only when the appeal is authorized by statute or court rule. Taylor Constr. Co. v. Hilton Hotels, 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order denying a motion to add defendants. In addition, it appears that appellant is not an aggrieved party with standing to appeal from that portion of the order granting appellant's motion for a jury trial. See NRAP 3A(a); Valley Bank of Nevada v.
