IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA ERIC THOMAS MESI, AN No. 83611 INDIVIDUAL, Appellant, vs. PENNYMAC LOAN SERVICES, LLC, - FILED Respondent. JAN 0 6 2022 ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from a district court order declaring appellant a vexatious litigant and dismissing his verified complaint for unlawful detainer as rogue, improper, and frivolous. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Crystal Eller, Judge. Review of the documents before this court reveals a jurisdictional defect. The underlying matter was commenced when respondent filed a complaint against appellant. That matter is still being litigated below. Thus, it does not appear that the challenged order is appealable as a final judgment under NRAP 3A(b)(1) because respondent's claims remain pending in the district court. See Lee v. GNLV Corp.,116 Nev. 424
, 426,996 P.2d 416
, 417 (2000) (defining a final judgment as "one that disposes of all the issues presented in the case, and leaves nothing for the future consideration of the court, except for post-judgment issues such as attorney's fees and coste). It also does not appear that any other statute or court rule provides for an appeal from the challenged order. See Brown u. 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"); Peck SUPREME COURT OF v. Crouser,129 Nev. 120
,295 P.3d 586
(2013) (providing that vexatious NEVADA litigant orders are not independently appealable); Consol. Generator-Nev., Inc. v. Cummins Engine Co.114 Nev. 1304
