JONATHAN LAWRENCE MEIRING, Appellant, v. CITY OF RENO, Respondent.
An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from a district court order denying an application for writ of mandamus. Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Jerome Polaha, 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). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order denying an application for writ of mandamus. Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal and we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
