ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from a district court order issued
September 8, 2015. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Elissa
F. Cadish, Judge.
Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant
to NRAP 3(g) reveals two jurisdictional defects. First, the notice of appeal
appears to be premature under NRAP 4(a) because it appears that it was
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). Second, this appears to be an appeal from a district
court order in an appeal from a justice court judgment. The district courts
have final appellate jurisdiction over cases arising in the justice courts.
Nev. Const. art. 6, § 6; see also Waugh v. Casazza, 85 Nev. 520, 521, 458
P.2d 359, 360 (1969) (holding that district court has final appellate
jurisdiction in cases arising in the justice's court).

Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction over this
appeal, and we therefore
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.'

'We have reviewed all documents that appellant has submitted in
proper person to the clerk of this court in this matter, and we conclude
that no relief based upon those submissions is warranted. To the extent
that appellant has attempted to present claims or facts in those
submissions which were not previously presented in the proceedings
below, we have declined to consider them in the first instance.
