AMATRONE v. STATE FARM FIRE AND CASUALTY (2018)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a district court order granting a motion to lift stay and regarding show cause hearing. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Gloria Sturman, Judge.

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, it appears that the order designated in the notice of appeal 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. See Brown v. MHC Stagecoach, 129 Nev. 343, 345, 301 P.3d 850, 851 (2013). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order granting a motion to lift stay and regarding a show cause hearing. Cf. Brunzell Constr. Co. v. Harrah's Club, 81 Nev. 414, 404 P.2d 902 (1965) (“An order granting or denying a stay of proceedings is not among [the list of statutorily appealable determinations].”). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.¹
