IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

PAUL JAY MOON, No. 81870 Appellant, vs. JOSEPH LOMBARDO, SHERIFF; LVMPD; LVMPD INTERNAL AFFAIRS; LVMPD SEAN KILLEAN #9675; AND FILED LVMPD DETECTIVE JETER, Res • ondents. OCT 2 3( 2020 E 1 7 *Mirk tF ecy, DEPUTY CLERK

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court minute order denying multiple motions for failure to allege facts sufficient for the court to grant relief. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Timothy C. Williams, Judge. Our preliminary review of the documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the order designated in the notice of appeal is not substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b) (listing orders and judgments from which an appeal may be taken), 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 Corp., 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984). No statute or court rule authorizes an appeal from the above-mentioned order. See also Rust v. Clark Cty. Sch. Dist., 103

3ects-i6 Nev. 686, 747 P.2d 1380 (1987) (explaining that a district court's minute order cannot be appealed, and that a written order or judgment must be filed before a district court ruling can be appealed). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
