CEDRIC GREENE, Appellant, v. PACIFIC SHORE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT; AND KRISTINA VILLICANA, Respondents.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Cedric Greene appeals from a district court order denying a petition for a writ of mandamus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Danielle K. Pieper, Judge.
Our review of the documents submitted to this court reveals a jurisdictional defect, as the district court has not yet entered a final judgment or order appealable under NRAP 3A(b). Specifically, Greene commenced this action by filing in the same document a petition for writ relief and a civil complaint asserting claims against respondents. While the district court denied writ relief, the district court did not enter any order or judgment concerning Greene's claims based on discrimination and for gross negligence against respondents; thus, these claims remain pending in the district court. See Lee v. GNLV Corp., 116 Nev. 424, 426, 996, P.2d 416, 417 (2000) (“[A] final judgment is one that disposes of all the issues presented in the case, and leaves nothing for the future consideration of the court, except for post-judgment issues such as attorney's fees and costs.”); see also City of N. Las Vegas v. Eighth Jud. Dist. Ct., 122 Nev. 1197, 1203-04, 147 P.3d 1109, 1114 (2006) (concluding that neither the rules of appellate procedure nor NRS 2.090(2) authorizes appeals from interlocutory orders denying a petition for a writ of mandamus). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction as the appeal is premature. Therefore, we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
