IN RE: THE GUARDIANSHIP OF NICHOLAS SARNELLI, A PROTECTED PERSON. ANTHONY BARONE, JR., Appellant, v. NICHOLAS SARNELLI, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a district court order denying motions to remove counsel and disqualify and dismiss counsel. Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Court Division, Clark County; Linda Marquis, Judge.
Review of the notice of appeal and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. 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 district court order denying a motion to remove counsel or a motion to disqualify and remove counsel. Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
