WILBERT ROY HOLMES, Appellant, v. CAPUCINE YOLANDA HOLMES, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a district court order “entered in this action on the 4th day of December, 2023.” Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Division, Clark County; Heidi Almase, Judge.
Review of the notice of appeal and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. The only order entered on December 4, 2023, was the district court's minute order striking documents filed by appellant. No statute or court rule allows an appeal from an order striking documents. See Brown v. MHC Stagecoach, LLC, 129 Nev. 343, 345, 301 P.3d 850, 851 (2013) (this court “may only consider appeals authorized by statute or court rule”). Further, the district court's minute order cannot be appealed. See Rust v. Clark Cnty. Sch. Dist., 103 Nev. 686, 689, 747 P.2d 1380, 1382 (1987). This court lacks jurisdiction and
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
