Rene SHERIDAN, Appellant, v. Joseph A. GUTIERREZ; Steven G. Knauss; Jason R. Maier; and Maier Gutierrez & Associates, Respondents.
ORDER DISMISSING APPPEAL
Review of the docketing statement and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the order challenged on appeal is not substantively appealable. 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 the challenged order. See Gumm v. Mainor, 118 Nev. 912, 59 P.3d 1220 (2002) (recognizing that to be appealable as a special order after final judgment, the challenged order must affect the rights of a party growing out of the final judgment). This court lacks jurisdiction and therefore
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
