DAVID HALE v. DEPUTY TAYLOR DR FRANK DEPUTY SAUL AND BARBARA SZEPRETHY (2024)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal in a civil rights matter. Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Lynne K. Jones, Judge.

Initial review of the documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. It appears that the notice of appeal was prematurely filed without a final, written, appealable order. See NRAP 3A. Appellant states in his notice of appeal that he appeals “from the Second Judicial District Court's order denying Hale's motion/request that Plaintiff's § 1983 civil rights complaint & motion for enlargement of time to effect process of service if applicable & motion for counsel.” However, the district court docket sheet and case appeal statement indicate the last written order was entered by the district court on July 18, 2022, granting respondent Barbara Szeprethy's motion to strike appellant's complaint below. Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
