EPPERSON v. VELASCO III (2018)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

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

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, appellant fails to identify any appealable order. The notice of appeal lists an October 4, 2016 order “and any order thereafter.” However, the district court docket entries do not include an order from October 4, 2016. There is an order entered October 14, 2016, apparently resolving a motion for reconsideration, which is not substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b). This court has jurisdiction to consider an appeal only when the appeal is authorized by statute or court rule. Taylor Constr. Co. v. Hilton Hotels, 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984). Further, any appeal from an order entered in 2016 is untimely. We note that on June 6, 2018, the court entered a written order from a January 10, 2018, hearing to modify custody, and the notice of appeal is timely from that order. However, the order only transfers the case to a different district court judge based on a potential conflict arising from the court's law clerk having previously worked with appellant's former attorney. Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
