Decided: March 22, 2019

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a post-judgment order denying appellant's motion for sanctions. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; James Crockett, Judge.

This court's review of the notice of appeal and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from a post-judgment order denying a motion for sanctions. 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”). Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.¹
