SPURBECK v. MIDLAND CREDIT MANAGEMENT INC (2025)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

Review of the notice of appeal and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the underlying action arose in the justice court. The district court has final appellate jurisdiction over a case arising in the justice court. Nev. Const, art. 6, § 6; Waugh v. Casazza, 85 Nev. 520, 458 P.2d 359 (1969). And no statute or court rule authorizes an appeal from the challenged orders. See 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, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.¹
