ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a district court order confirming an arbitration award. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Ronald J. Israel, Judge. Our review of the docketing statement and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Appellant filed a timely tolling motion in the district court on April 9, 2018, seeking to vacate the order challenged on appeal. See NEAP 4(a)(4); AA Primo Builders, LLC v. Washington, 126 Nev. 578, 581-85, 1190, 1192-95 (2010) (describing when a post-judgment motion qualifies as a tolling motion). The notice of appeal was prematurely filed on April 22, 2018, before the tolling motion was resolved. To date, it appears that the tolling motion remains pending in the district court. Thus, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider this appeal, see
