ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a proper person appeal from a district court order dismissing an appeal from the justice court. Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(§) 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 Wczugh v. Cczsazza, 85 Nev. 520, 521, 458 P.Zd 359, 360 (1969). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, and we

ORDER this appeal DlSl\/HSSED.
