FILED JULIE A. GOLDBERG, Appellant, MAR 0 4 2016 vs. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK, ondent.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is an appeal from an order denying a petition to recover wards' property. Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Court Division, Clark County; Cynthia Dianne Steel, Judge.

Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the notice of appeal appears to be prematurely filed under NRAP 4(a) because it appears that it was filed before the entry of a final written judgment, and is therefore of no effect. See NRAP 4(a)(1); Rust v. Clark Cty. Sch. Dist., 103 Nev. 686, 747 P.2d 1380 (1987). A notice of appeal filed before entry SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA

(0) 1947A 42itt(ca of a written judgment is of no effect. Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
