ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from an order denying appellant's "objection" to a postjudgment order that denied appellant's motion for a birth certificate, motion to disestablish paternity, motion to modify child custody and support, and motion for the return of federal stimulus money. Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Court Division, Clark County; T. Arthur Ritchie, Jr., Judge.

The order designated in the notice of appeal is not substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b). This court has jurisdiction to consider an appeal only when the appeal is authorized by statute or court rule. Taylor Constr. Co. v. Hilton Hotels, 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order denying an objection to an order. To the extent the order denies a motion for reconsideration or rehearing, such orders are not independently appealable. Alois v. State, Gaming Control Bd., 99 Nev. 184, 660 P.2d 980 (1983) (holding that an order denying a motion for rehearing is not appealable), overruled on other grounds by AA Primo Builders, LLC v. Washington, 126 Nev. 578, 245 P.3d 1190 (2010). This court lacks jurisdiction and

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
