ORDER DISMISSING APPEALS These are pro se appeals from district court orders denying motion to hold counsel in contempt and directing counsel to resend portions of case file. Ninth Judicial District Court, Douglas County; Thomas W. Gregory, Judge.

Because no statute or court rule permits an appeal from an order denying a motion to hold counsel in contempt and directing counsel to resend portions of case file in a criminal matter, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider these appeals.
