                                       ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

                              This is a pro se appeal from a district court order, entered in
                  consolidated cases, deconsolidating the cases, statistically closing case A-
                  20-813635-C, and directing that all future documents be filed in case A-21-
                  838187-C. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Susan Johnson,
                  Judge. Review of the notice of appeal and other documents before this court
                  reveals a jurisdictional defect. The challenged order is not substantively
                  appealable. Specifically, no statute or court rule allows an appeal from a
                  post-judgment or interlocutory order deconsolidating cases, statistically
                  closing a case, and directing that all future documents be filed in another
                  case.2 See Brown v. MHC Stagecoach, LLC, 129 Nev. 343, 345-47, 301 P.3d
                  850, 851-53 (2013) (stating that this court "may only consider appeals
                  authorized by statute or court rule" and discussing the appealability of an

                        lAn order dismissing case A-20-813635-C was entered in the district
                  court on July 28, 2020.

                        2A1though  appellant indicates in her case appeal statement that the
                  order also denies her motion and counter-motion for sanctions, the order
                  does not address any request for sanctions.
