UNPUBLISHED OPINION
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from the district court's minute order regarding the sale of real property. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; David M. Jones, Judge.
Initial review of the notice of appeal and the documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. The district court's minute order is not effective and cannot be appealed. See State, Div. of Child & Family Serus. v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 445, 454, 92 P.3d 1239, 1245 (2004) ("[Dispositional court orders that are not administrative in nature, but deal with the procedural posture or merits of the underlying controversy, must be written, signed, and filed before they become effective."); Rust v. Clark Cty. Sch. Dist, 103 Nev. 686, 689, 747 P.2d 1380, 1382 (1987) (stating that the district court's minute order is ineffective and, cannot be appealed). Additionally, 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 allows for an appeal from the district court's order identified in appellant's notice of appeal. Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
Given this dismissal, this court takes no action in regard to appellant's motion for stay filed on April 4, 2022.
