No. 64058 (Nev. Oct. 23, 2013)

Opinion

No. 64058

NAKIA WOODSON, Appellant, v. MONTE TRAVIS, Respondent.


An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, this appeal arises from the district court's appellate review of a justice court decision, and district courts have final appellate jurisdiction over cases arising in the justice courts. Nev. Const. art. 6, § 6; see also Waugh v. Casazza, 85 Nev. 520, 521, 458 P.2d 359, 360 (1969) (noting that "[t]he district court has final appellate jurisdiction in cases arising in the justice's court"). Accordingly, as we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, we order the appeal dismissed.

It is so ORDERED.
