IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

HEATHER MATTHEWS, No. 79898 Appellant, vs. CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, Respondent. FILED JAN 0 6 2020 ELIZA3Fril A. BROWN CLERKX SUPREME COURT DEPUTY CLERK

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from a district court order dismissing a complaint. First Judicial District Court, Carson City; James E. Wilson, Judge.

Review of the notice of appeal and documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. It appears that appellant filed a timely tolling motion on August 2, 2019. See NRAP 4(a)(4); AA Primo Builders, LLC v. Washington, 126 Nev. 578, 585, 245 P.3d 1190, 1195 (2010) (explaining when a post-judgment motion for reconsideration carries tolling effect). Appellant prematurely filed the notice of appeal after the filing of the tolling motion and before that motion was formally resolved. See NRAP 4(a)(6). To date, it appears the motion remains pending in the district court.

Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction, see id. CA premature notice of
