IN RE: the Petition of IN FORMA PAUPERIS REQUEST. (2019)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from an order denying appellant's motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Linda Marie Bell, Judge.

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the judgment or 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. Taylor Con sir. Co. v. Hilton Hotels, 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order denying a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. We conclude, therefore, that we lack jurisdiction, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
