CALVIN JAMES LESLIE, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from an order denying the following: writ of habeas corpus to compel house arrest officer Lopez & Sgt. Tender to testify under oath; motion hearing order the Clark County district attorney office to return defendant portfolio; emergency writ of habeas corpus compelling High Desert Prison officials to release all the recorded conversations of Calvin Leslie; motion to compel attorneys and former judge to testify concerning meeting with Calvin Leslie; motion hearing to compel Elanor Larrock to testify concerning the defendant cell phones; motion to compel Bowler, Dixson, Twitched Law Group to produce and release a copy of the letter sent to the LVMPD elder abuse dept; evidentiary hearing to subpoena and compel house arrest officer Lopez and Sgt. Tender to submit to a polygraph test. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Erika D. Ballou, Judge.
Because no statute or court rule permits an appeal from the aforementioned district court order, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider this appeal. Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990) (explaining that this court has jurisdiction only when statute or court rule provides for appeal). Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
