ALBERT LAMB; AND DANIEL LAMB, Appellants, v. FARMERS GROUP PROPERTY AND CASUALTY INSURANCE COMPANY, Respondent.


UNPUBLISHED OPINION

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a district court order denying an appeal from Justice Court and from a district court order denying a motion for reconsideration. Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Connie J. Steinheimer, Judge.

Review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) 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 either of the challenged orders. See Nev. Const, art. 6, § 6; Waugh v. Casazza, 85 Nev. 520, 521, 458 P.2d 359. 360 (1969) (the district courts have final appellate jurisdiction over cases arising in the justice courts); Alvis v. State, 99 Nev. 184, 186, 660 P.2d 980, 981 (1983), disapproved of by AA Primo Builders, LLC v. Washington, 126 Nev. 578, 245 P.3d 1190 (2010) (an order denying rehearing is not appealable as a special order after final judgment). Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
