JEFFREY WILLUHN, Appellant, v. LAS VEGAS METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT, Respondent.

No. 85201

Supreme Court of Nevada

UNPUBLISHED OPINION

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a district court order granting respondent's motion to dismiss. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Eric Johnson, Judge.

Review of the documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. It appears that appellant's claims against Jason Roderick remain pending below. Because these claims against Roderick remain pending below, the order challenged on appeal is not appealable as a final judgment under NRAP 3A(b)(1) and has not been certified as final under NRCP 54(b). See Lee v. GNLV Corp., 116 Nev. 424, 426, 996 P.2d 416, 417 (2000) (defining a final judgment). No other statute or court rule allows for an appeal from the challenged order. See Brown v. MHC Stagecoach, LLC, 129 Nev. 343, 345. 301 P.3d 850, 851 (2013) (this court "may only consider appeals authorized by statute or court rule"). Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
