ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from a district court order granting a motion to dismiss. Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Lynne K. Simons, Judge.

Review of appellant's notice of appeal and docketing statement reveals a jurisdictional defect. As appellant acknowledges in his docketing statement, the challenged order does not resolve appellant's claims against

SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA 3.r3s1 I947A atgatip Merck & Co. Inc. Accordingly, the order is not appealable as a final judgment under NRAP 3A(b)(1). See Lee v. GNLV Corp., 116 Nev. 424, 426, 996 P.2d 416, 417 (2000) (defining a final judgment). Appellant asserts that this court has jurisdiction under NRS 703.376. However, that statute is inapplicable here as the underlying matter does not involve the Public Utilities Commission.

As no statute or court rule appears to permit an appeal from the district court's order, See Brown v. MHC Stagecoach, LLC, 129 Nev. 343, 345, 301 P.3d 850, 851 (2013) (this court "may only consider appeals authorized by statute or court rule"), this court ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.

lIt also appears that appellant's claims against John Ganser, Director of Renown South Meadows Medical Center and Jane Doe Ganser, husband and wife, in their individual and corporate capacities, and their marital community, may remain pending.
