JOEL CRUZ RIVEROL, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.


ORDER DISMISSING APPEALS

These are pro se appeals from district court orders denying a "motion to investigate, inspect security surveillance footage," denying a motion to suppress, and denying a motion to appoint counsel. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Michelle Leavitt, Judge.

Our review of these appeals reveals jurisdictional defects. Specifically, no statute or court rule provides for an appeal from district court orders denying a "motion to investigate, inspect security surveillance footage," denying a motion to suppress, and denying a motion to appoint counsel. See NRS 177.015(2) (only the State may appeal from a pretrial order granting or denying a motion to suppress); 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). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to consider these appeals, and we

ORDER these appeals DISMISSED.
