Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

BOBBY FRANKLIN, D/B/A DAYDREAM No. 81432 LAND & SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT CO., Appellant, FILE vs. D.J. LAUGHLIN; AND ATTORNEY JUL 3 0 2020 WILLIAM R. URGA, ELIZABETH A. BROWN CLERK OF SUPREME COURT Res tondents. BY S• CEPURCLE

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from an order denying appellant leave to file documents pursuant to his designation as a vexatious litigant. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Linda Marie Bell, Judge. Review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the 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 Con.str. 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 vexatious litigant leave to file documents. Cf. Peck v. Crouser, 129 Nev. 120, 295 P.3d 586 (2013). This court lacks jurisdiction and ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
