DAVID L. CUNNINGHAM, Appellant, v. SCOTT N. FREEMAN; AND LAW OFFICES OF FREEMAN AND RIGGS, Respondents.


An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority.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

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a district court order denying appellant's motion to suppress his deposition. First Judicial District Court, Carson City; James Todd Russell, Judge.

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, it appears that 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 statue or court rule provides for an appeal from an order denying a motion to suppress a deposition. Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
