ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a series of district court orders and documents. Eighth Judicial District Court, Family Court Division, Clark County; T. Arthur Ritchie, Jr., judge.
Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals jurisdictional defects. First, most of the orders designated in the notice of appeal are not substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b). This court has jurisdiction to consider an appeal only when the appeal is authorized by statute or court rule. Taylor Constr. Co. u.
Hilton Hotels, 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from the following orders and documents: 1. Order After Hearing Certifying Intent to Grant Relief 2. Complaint for Custody 3. Affidavit in Support of Service SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA (0) 1947A neM3)0 • Icr- 08730 4. Default 5. Certificate of Service 6. Amended Certificate of Service 7.

Comment Notice of Entry of Order After Hearing Second, although the Decree of Custody, notice of entry of which was served on November 28, 2018, appears to be substantively appealable, the notice of appeal was filed January 23, 2019, well after the expiration of the time frame set by NRAP 4(a)(1). An untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court. NRAP 26(c).
