MATTHEW TRAVIS HOUSTON, Appellant, v. CALVIN JOHNSON, WARDEN; AND THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondents.
UNPUBLISHED OPINION
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Stiglich, J.
This is a pro se appeal regarding a "supplement to civil rights complaint by an inmate as a 'Brandeis brief,' meritorious intervention and joinder of appeal pursuant to Nev. R. Civ. P. 59 and Nev R. Civ. P. 60 under NRAP 27(e), hearings requested." Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jennifer L. Schwartz, Judge.
This court's review of the notice of appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the notice of appeal fails to identify any decisions of the district court. See NRAP 3(c)(1)(B). To the extent, if any, appellant's notice of appeal can be construed as challenging the district court's May 23, 2024, minute order regarding vacating a hearing set for June 11, 2024, no statute or court rule allows for an appeal from district court minutes or from a decision vacating a hearing. See Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990) (explaining that this court has jurisdiction only when statute or court rule provides for appeal). This court lacks jurisdiction to consider this appeal and ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
