ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court order striking motion for leave to file amended petition and warning about frivolous filings. Seventh Judicial District Court, White Pine County; Steve L. Dobrescu, Judge. Our preliminary review of the documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the order designated in the notice of appeal is not substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b) (listing orders and judgments from which an appeal may be taken). 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 Corp., 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984). No statute or court rule authorizes an appeal SUPREME COURT

NEVADA sces from the above-mentioned order. Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
