JARVIS THOMAS, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
These are pro se notices of appeal that appear to challenge the court of appeals’ order of affirmance in appellant's appeal in Docket No. 85524-COA.
This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no statute or court rule permits an appeal from an order of affirmance. See Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 792 P.2d 1133 (1990) (right to appeal is statutory; where no statute or court rule provides for an appeal, no right to appeal exists). To the extent that the notices of appeal can be construed as petitions for rehearing or review of the court of appeals’ April 12, 2023, Order of Affirmance in Docket No. 85524-COA, they were untimely filed. See NRAP 40(a)(1); NRAP 40B(c). Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
