ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE 

These are unconsolidated proper person appeals challenging 

district court orders dismissing two separate complaints. Seventh Judicial 

District Court, White Pine County; Steve L. Dobrescu, Judge and Gary 

Fairman, Judge. 

These appeals arise from district court actions filed in the 

Seventh Judicial District Court by appellant Michael Steve Cox, an 

inmate. Cox had previously been declared a vexatious litigant by that 

court, and, thus, the court had imposed a series of requirements that he 

had to comply with before he could pursue a new civil action in that court. 

See Jordan v. State ex rel. Dep't of Motor Vehicles Si Public Safety, 121 

Nev. 40, 59, 110 P.3d 30, 41-42 (2005) (holding that a district court may 

impose court access restrictions on parties that are deemed to be vexatious 

litigants), abrogated on other grounds by Buzz Stew, LLC v. City of N. Las 

Vegas, 124 Nev. 224, 228 n.6, 181 P.M 670, 672 n.6 (2008). In both 

underlying cases, following the submission of his complaints, the district 

court reminded Cox that he was required to follow the vexatious litigant 

procedures and entered orders that gave him 30 days to do so. 

While Cox did submit affidavits in support of his complaints, 

those affidavits did not provide all of the information required by the 

vexatious litigant order. Specifically, Cox's affidavits stated that his 

complaints were not frivolous and that he had not previously filed suit on 

those claims in the Seventh Judicial District Court, but the affidavits did 

not respond to other requirements set forth in the vexatious litigant order 

by identifying whether the claims had been raised in other courts, and if 

so, providing the case number and court, stating whether he had been 

deemed a vexatious litigant in any other jurisdictions, and stating

whether he was under imminent danger of serious physical harm. 

Because Cox failed to comply with all of the requirements of the vexatious 

litigant order, his complaints were subsequently dismissed by the district 

court and these appeals followed. 

In his proper person appeal statements for these cases, Cox 

largely restates the arguments from his underlying complaints and fails to 

address the vexatious litigant order, the propriety of the district court's 

order directing him to submit the information required by the vexatious 

litigant order, or his compliance with that order or the district court's 

directive. While Cox does argue, for the first time on appeal in the appeal 

statement pending in Docket No. 63583, that he is in danger of harm, that 

assertion was never presented to the district court. Old Aztec Mine, Inc. v. 

Brown, 97 Nev. 49, 52, 623 P.2d 981, 983 (1981) (holding that a point not 

urged in the district court is generally deemed to have been waived). 

Under these circumstances, we find no impropriety in the district court's 

dismissal of Cox's claims for failure to comply with the requirements set 

forth in the vexatious litigant order. See Jordan, 121 Nev. at 59, 110 P.3d 

at 41-42. Accordingly, we 

ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
