Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

JOHN ELVIN TURNER, No. 66869 Appellant, vs. LAW LIBRARY NDOC; H.D.S.P.; CANTEEN; AND THE STATE OF FILED NEVADA, FEB 0 3 2016 Respondents.

TRACE K. UNOEMAN CLERK OF SUPREME COURT BY ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL DEPUTY CLERK

This is a pro se appeal from an order of the district court affirming a judgment of the justice court. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Elissa F. Cadish, Judge.

Our review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect.

Specifically, appellant's case arose in the justice court. The district court has final appellate jurisdiction over a case arising in the justice court.

Nev. Const. art. 6, sec. 6; Tripp v. City of Sparks, 92 Nev. 362, 363, 550 P.2d 419, 419 (1976). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.'
