ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a proper person appeal from a district court order concerning child custody. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Kenneth E. Pollock, Judge.
No appeal may be taken from a temporary child custody order. In re Temporary Custody of Five Minors, 105 Nev. 441, 443, 777 P.2d 901, 902 (1989) ; cf. NRAP 3A(b)(7) (permitting an appeal from an order “that finally establishes or alters the custody of minor children”) (emphasis added). In the present case, the district court remanded this matter to another district court department for further proceedings regarding the children's custody, and thus, the challenged order is not a final custody order.
Once the district court enters a written order finally resolving the custody issues, any party that is aggrieved from the order may appeal. NRAP 3A(a) (providing that any aggrieved party may appeal from an order); Valley Bank of Nevada v. Ginsburg, 110 Nev. 440, 446, 874 P.2d 729, 734 (1994) (holding that a party is aggrieved within the meaning of NRAP 3A(a) when either a personal right or right of property is adversely affected by a court ruling). Accordingly, as we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, we
In light of this order, we deny any relief requested by appellant in the March 19 and June 4, 2012, letters to this court.
