CHRISTOPHER ANDERSON, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a purported district court order “denying uncontested petition for writ of habeas corpus/motion for discharge N.R.S. 34.500(1), (3) and (7);motion for return of illegally seized property N.R.S. 179.085(A) and motion for summary/default judgment N.R.C.P. 55 and 56 entered in this action on the 2nd day of January 2025.”
No order was entered in the district court on January 2, 2025. To the extent, if any, appellant is challenging the district court's February 12, 2025, “Order Denying Plaintiff's Summary Demand for Recoverable Damages for Failure to Issue Writ Per NRS 34.670,” no statute or court rule permits an appeal from this district court order. 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 lacks jurisdiction and
