                                        ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

                            This is a pro se appeal from a district court order denying
                appellant's motion to dismiss and to extinguish temporary restraining
                order. Seventh Judicial District Court, White Pine County; Gary Fairman,
                Judge.
                            This court's review of the docketing statement and the
                documents submitted to this court pursuant to NRAP 3(g) reveals a
                jurisdictional defect.     Specifically, it appears that the order is not
                substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b). This court has jurisdiction to
                consider an appeal only when the appeal is authorized by statute or court
                rule. Taylor Constr. Co. v. Hilton Hotels Corp., 100 Nev. 207, 209, 678 P.2d
                1152, 1153 (1984). Appellant states in her docketing statement that the
                district court's order is appealable under NRAP 3A(b)(3) as an order
                refusing to dissolve an injunction because it denied a request to extinguish
                a temporary restraining order. However, upon a review of the documents
                submitted   to   this    court,   it   appears   that   appellant         only   sought
                extinguishment of the temporary restraining order as a consequence of the
                dismissal of respondents' complaint. No statute or court rule provides for

                            an appeal from an order denying a motion to dismiss. Accordingly, this
                            court lacks jurisdiction and we
