An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This appeal was initiated by the filing of a pro se notice of appeal. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Susan Johnson, Judge.

Our review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. The right to appeal is statutory; where no statute or court rule provides for an appeal, no right to appeal exists. Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990). Because appellant failed to designate an appealable order, we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal. Accordingly, we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.¹

1 Further, appellant's notice of appeal from the designated order is untimely. See NRAP 4(b); NRAP 26. Thus, we would lack jurisdiction on this basis as well. --------
