Opinion
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA
DANIELLE TYRA, No. 72751 Appellant, vs. JASON PAUL VAN BUREN, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from an order denying a motion to set aside a child custody determination. Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Court Division, Clark County; T. Arthur Ritchie, Jr., Judge. Our review of docketing statement and the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, it appears that the notice of appeal was prematurely filed, before the entry of a final written judgment, and is therefore of no effect. See NRAP 4(a)(1). A district court's oral pronouncement from the bench, a minute order, and even an unfiled written order do not definitively resolve a disputed matter and cannot be appealed. See Rust v. Clark Cty, School District, 103 Nev. 686, 747 P.2d 1380 (1987). We conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
