Turner v. State

Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

JOHN ELVIN TURNER, No. 76944 Appellant,

vs.

THE STATE OF NEVADA; AND FILE

C.C.D.C., OCT 0 1 2018 Respondents.

EUZABETH A. BROWN CLERK F SUPREME COURT

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL BY DEPUTY CLF-RK

This is a pro se appeal from an order dismissing appellant's complaint. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Kerry Louise Earley, Judge.

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, appellant purports to challenge a decision and order entered on August 20, 2018, but the district court docket sheet indicates that the only order dated August 20, 2018, is a minute order that does not bear the file-stamp of the district court clerk and is not signed by the district court. Such a document cannot be appealed. See Rust v. Clark Cty. Sch. Dist., 103 Nev. 686, 689, 747 P.2d 1380, 1382 (1987). We thus conclude that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.'
