DENISE FULEIHAN, Appellant, v. KATHERINE MCDOWELL, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a district court order dismissing an appeal from a justice court judgment in a small claims action. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jessica K. Peterson, Judge.

The district courts have final appellate jurisdiction over cases arising in the justice courts. Nev. Const. art. 6, § 6; Waugh v. Casazza, 85 Nev. 520, 521, 458 P.2d 359, 360 (1969). Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal, and we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
