Wylmina E. HETTINGA, an Individual, Appellant, v. ALAN T. NAHOUM, INC., a New York Corporation, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Pro se appellant Wylmina Hettinga appeals an order denying a motion for reconsideration of default judgments entered against her codefendants below, Pacific Almaden Investments, LLC and Coastal Benefits, LLC. Review of the documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Appellant is not aggrieved by the challenged default judgments against Pacific Almaden and Coastal because they do not affect any rights of appellant. See Valley Bank of Nev. v. Ginsburg, 110 Nev. 440, 446, 874 P.2d 729, 734 (1994) (defining an aggrieved party as one whose personal or property rights are substantially and adversely affected by a ruling of the district court). Therefore, this court concludes that appellant lacks standing to appeal. See NRAP 3A(a); Valley Bank, 110 Nev. at 446, 874 P.2d at 734 (this court only has jurisdiction to consider an appeal where it is brought by an aggrieved party). Additionally, an order denying reconsideration is not appealable. See Arnold v. Kip, 123 Nev. 410, 417, 168 P.3d 1050, 1054 (2007). Accordingly, we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
