FREDERICK O. SILVER, Appellant, v. STEVEN B. WOLFSON, CLARK COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY; CLARK COUNTY CHILD SUPPORT DIVISION; AND CANDICE KATIE TOWNER, Respondents.


ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a minute order granting a motion to dismiss. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Richard Scotti, Judge.

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the notice of appeal is untimely filed under NRAP 4(a) because it was prematurely filed, before the entry of a final written judgment, and is therefore of no effect. See NRAP 4(a)(1); Rust v. Clark Cty. School District, 103 Nev. 686, 747 P.2d 1380 (1987) (explaining that the district court's oral pronouncement from the bench, the clerk's minute order, and even an unfiled written order cannot be appealed).

We conclude, therefore, that we lack jurisdiction, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
