ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a district court order granting in part a motion to dismiss and denying a motion to amend complaint. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Susan Johnson, Judge. Our review of the notice of appeal and documents transmitted with that notice reveals a jurisdictional defect. The challenged order is not appealable as a final judgment under NRAP 3A(b)(1) because appellant's claims for breach of contract, negligence, conversion, breach of fiduciary duty, and negligent supervision remain pending in the district court. See Lee v.
