CALVIN LESLIE, Appellant, v. ZGO TRUST, Respondent.
An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This proper person appeal arises from the district court's dismissal of an appeal from a justice court decision.
Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, 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, we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, and we therefore
In light of this order, we deny as moot all requests for relief currently pending in this appeal.
