Review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the orders designated in the notice of appeal are not substantively appealable.

Court, 130 Nev. 493, 497, 330 P.3d 475, 478 (2014); Peck v. Crouser, 129 Nev. 120, 124, 295 P.3d 586, 588 (2013). This court lacks jurisdiction and
