ALLANNA WARREN, Appellant, v. THE CITY OF LAS VEGAS NEVADA, THE COUNTY OF CLARK NEVADA, LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT, Respondents.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from a post-judgment order declaring appellant a vexatious litigant and imposing filing restrictions. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Gloria Sturman, Judge.
Review of the notice of appeal and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, a post-judgment order declaring a party to be a vexatious litigant is not independently appealable, and no other statute or court rule appears to allow an appeal from the challenged order. See Peck v. Crouser, 129 Nev. 120, 295 P.3d 586 (2013) (providing that a post-judgment vexatious litigant determination is not independently appealable): 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”). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction and
