ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE

Javion Carlos Pope appeals from a judgment of conviction, entered pursuant to a guilty plea, of two counts of robbery with the use of a deadly weapon, attempted robbery with the use of a deadly weapon, and discharging a weapon where a person may be endangered. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jacqueline M. Bluth, Judge.

Pope argues the district court erred by denying or refusing to consider his motions to dismiss counsel. Pope filed all of his motions prior to the entry of his guilty plea. The entry of a guilty plea generally waives any right to appeal from events occurring prior to the entry of the plea. Webb v. State , 91 Nev. 469, 470, 538 P.2d 164, 165 (1975). Moreover, there is no indication in the record that Pope preserved the right to challenge the district court's denial, or refusal to consider, his motion to dismiss counsel. See NRS 174.035(3). Therefore, we decline to consider this claim. Accordingly, we

ORDER the judgment of conviction AFFIRMED.
