MICHAEL NURRE, Appellant, v. AMERICAN EXPRESS NATIONAL BANK, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a March 12, 2024, amended district court order converting an arbitration award to judgment. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Anna C. Albertson, Judge.
Review of the notice of appeal and documents transmitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. This court has jurisdiction to consider an appeal only when the appeal is authorized by statute or court rule. Brown v. MHC Stagecoach, 129 Nev. 343, 345, 301 P.3d 850, 851 (2013). Although the challenged order is treated as a final judgment under NAR 19(b), that rule also provides that “[a] judgment entered pursuant to this rule ․ may not be appealed” unless “the district court entered a written interlocutory order disposing of a portion of the action.” Because the district court in this case did not enter an interlocutory order disposing of a portion of the action, NAR 19(b) prohibits appellant from appealing the March 12, 2024, order. And no other statute or court rule provides for an appeal from the March 12, 2024, order. Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
