CALVIN JAMES LESLIE v. THE STATE OF NEVADA (2024)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

These are two pro se notices of appeal, one from a district court order denying a motion to compel regarding “records and recorded conversations between the LVMP dept, and the plaintiff” and the other from an order denying several motions regarding dismissing and appointing counsel, returning seized property, and compelling individuals to testify. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Susan Johnson, Judge.

This court's review of the documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, there is no court rule or statute authorizing appeals from such orders, and this court “may only consider appeals authorized by statute or court rule.” Brown v. MPIC Stagecoach, LLC, 129 Nev. 343, 345, 301 P.3d 850, 851 (2013). See Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990) (explaining that this court has jurisdiction only when statute or court rule provides for appeal). Accordingly, this court dismisses this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

It is so ORDERED.
