RONALD DENNIS FERLINGERE, No. 70035 Appellant, vs. GRACIELA PINTO, Respondent. FILED MAY 0 3 2016 TRACE K. LINDFLIAN CLERK F SUPREME COURT

BY . DEPUTY CLERK

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from an order denying an "Object to Order of Dismissal." Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Lidia Stiglich, Judge. Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. 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 "object to order of dismissal." To the extent an "object to order of dismissal" could be construed as a motion for reconsideration, this court also lacks jurisdiction to consider an appeal from an order denying reconsideration. See Arnold v. Kip, 123 Nev. 410, 417, 168 P.3d 1050, 1054 (2007); Alois v. State, Gaming Control Bd., 99 Nev. 184, 660 P.2d 980 (1983), disapproved of on SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA

(0) 1947A e other grounds by AA Primo Builders v, Washington, 126 Nev. 578, 245 P.3d 1190 (2010). Accordingly, we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
