Katrina Garcia, Appellant, v. The State of Nevada, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEALS
These are pro se appeals from district court orders denying appeals from convictions entered injustice court and remanding for further proceedings. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Richard Scotti, Judge.
This court's review of these appeals reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court has final appellate jurisdiction over cases arising in the justice court. Nev. Const. art. 6, § 6; Tripp v. City of Sparks, 92 Nev. 362, 363, 550 P.2d 419, 419 (1976); Waugh v. Casazza, 85 Nev. 520, 458 P.2d 359 (1969). Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider these appeals, and
ORDERS these appeals DISMISSED.
