J.D. CALDWELL, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.


ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a district court "order denying and/or dismissing the granting of the total amount of time credit owed concerning this courts ruling not to grant total amount of days owed." Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Kathleen E. Delaney, Judge.

Our review of this appeal reveals jurisdictional defects. Specifically, no statute or court rule provides for an appeal from a district court order denying and/or dismissing a motion for credit for time served. Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990) (right to appeal is statutory; where no statute or court rule provides for an appeal, no right to appeal exists). Further, review of the district court minutes and docket entries indicate that no such order was entered. Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
