Mario ACCOMANDO, Appellant, v. Georgann Rose ACCOMANDO, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the notice of appeal was prematurely filed, before the entry of a final written judgment, and is therefore of no effect. See NRAP 4(a)(1); Rust v. Clark Cty. Sch. Dist., 103 Nev. 686, 747 P.2d 1380 (1987) (explaining that the district court's oral pronouncement from the bench, the clerk's minute order, and even an unfiled written order cannot be appealed). Although a draft divorce decree may have been prepared, review of the district court docket entries reveals that no written order has yet been filed by the court. Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and therefore
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
