Matthew Travis HOUSTON, Appellant, v. MANDALAY BAY CORP, d/b/a Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Review of the notices of appeal and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. The notices of appeal appear to challenge (1) a motion to intervene filed in the district court on March 2, 2022, and (2) a February 28, 2022, district court order denying a motion to amend complaint and a motion to dismiss counsel and appoint standby counsel. This court “may only consider appeals authorized by statute or court rule.” Brown v. MHC Stagecoach, LLC, 129 Nev. 343, 345, 301 P.3d 850, 851 (2013). No statute or court rule authorizes an appeal from a motion to intervene or the challenged district court order. Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
