Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

JAMES THEODORE SHARKEY, No. 79413 Appellant, vs. ANDREA STAPLETON, Respondent. FILED AUG 2 3 2019

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL By DE -.1( CLERK

This is a pro se appeal from an order denying appellant's motion to inspect all evidence favorable to him. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; William D. Kephart, Judge. Review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the judgment or order designated in the notice of appeal is not substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order denying a motion to inspect favorable evidence. 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). Accordingly, as this court lacks jurisdiction, this court ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
