GENE ANTHONY ALLEN, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA; FRANKLIN B. WILKERSON; SADIE SULLIVAN; DAWN BEQUETTE; CANDICE BOYCE; AND KATRENA M. MARTIN, Respondents.


ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court order denying a motion for appointment of counsel. First Judicial District Court, Carson City; James E. Wilson Jr. Judge.

Review of the notice of appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. No statute or court rule authorizes an appeal from a district court order denying a motion for appointment of counsel. See NRAP 3A(b); 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.

This court takes no action in regard to the motions filed on July and 14, 2020.
