ALBERT BERNARD BUTLER, A/KA BERNARD BUTLER, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.


ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a "district court order granting or denying motion for house arrest." Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jessie Elizabeth Walsh, Judge.

Our review of this appeal reveals jurisdictional defects. Specifically, an order granting or denying a motion for house arrest is not an appealable order. 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, our review of the district court minutes and docket entries indicate that no such order was entered. Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
