ORDER DISMISSING APPEALS
Review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals two jurisdictional defects. Specifically, neither order designated in the notice of appeal is 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 Constr. 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 motion for evidence establishing damages or from an order denying summary judgment.
Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction, and
ORDERS these appeals DISMISSED.
