TYLER HARRIS v. CSL PLASMA (2025)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Veronica Barisich, Judge.

Appellant does not identify a specific order in his notice of appeal. However, he states therein that he was informed on April 2 that his case for slander was dismissed. The district court minutes indicate that on April 2, 2025, the district court issued a minute order denying appellant's application for default judgment. The district court docket entries reflect that a written order denying a motion for default judgment was entered on April 9, 2025, and the district court case remains open.

The district court's minute order is not appealable. See Div. of Child. & Family Servs. v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 445, 454, 92 P.3d 1239, 1245 (2004) (“[D]ispositional court orders that are not administrative in nature, but deal with the procedural posture or merits of the underlying controversy, must be written, signed, and filed before they become effective.”). Review of the April 9, 2025, order reveals that it did not dismiss appellant's complaint and is not otherwise appealable. 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”). Under these circumstances, appellant fails to identify an appealable order and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.¹
