ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from a district court order placing a minor child for purposes of adoption and ordering that a post-adoptive contract agreement take effect. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; David S. Gibson, Jr., Judge.
Respondent Clark County Department of Family Services (CCDFS) has filed a motion to dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction. CCDFS contends that the challenged order is not appealable.
The order challenged in this appeal determines custody of a minor child in a proceeding arising in juvenile court. A custody order entered in a proceeding arising in a juvenile court is not appealable. E.g., Clark Cnty. Dist. Atty. v. Eighth Jud. Dist. Ct., 123 Nev. 337, 342, 167 P.3d 922, 925 (2007) (concluding that writ relief was the proper manner to challenge a district court placement order issued under NRS Chapter 432B); see also NRAP 3A(b)(7) (allowing an appeal from a custody order “entered in a proceeding that did not arise in a juvenile court) (emphasis added). Accordingly, CCDFSs unopposed motion is granted and we ORDER this appeal DISMSISED.
