Herzog v. Herzog (Child Custody) ( 2016 )

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA
SHAUN MICHAEL HERZOG, No. 69521
Appellant,
vs.
KELLIE HERZOG,
FILED
Respondent. JAN 2.8 2016
TRACE K LINDEMAN
CLERK OF SUPREME COURT
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL sr DEPUTY CLER
This is an appeal from a divorce decree. Second Judicial
District Court, Family Court Division, Washoe County; Frances Doherty,
Judge.
Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant
to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the notice of
appeal was prematurely filed, before the entry of a final written judgment,
and is therefore of no effect. See NRAP 4(a)(1); Rust v. Clark Cty. School
District, 103 Nev. 686, 747 P.2d 1380 (1987) (explaining that an oral
pronouncement from the bench or a minute order is ineffective for any
purpose). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
