This court has jurisdiction to consider an appeal only when the appeal is authorized by statute or court rule. Taylor Constr. Co. v. Hilton Hotels, 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984). No statute or court rule permits an appeal from an order denying a motion to amend a complaint.

See NRAP 3A(b). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
