ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from an order denying a motion to set aside a dismissal of an appeal to the district court from a small claims judgment. Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Barry L. Breslow, Judge.

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district courts have final appellate jurisdiction over cases arising in the justice courts. Nev, Const. art. 6, § 6; see also Waugh u. Gasazza, 85 Nev. 520, 521, 458 P.2d 359, 360 (1969). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, and we therefore ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
