FERGUSON v. STATE (2019)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from “the Judgment of Finding of the above-entitled court on June 18, 2019.” Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jerry A. Wiese, Judge.

This court's initial review of this appeal revealed a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no order was entered in the district court on June 18, 2019. In addition, no statute or court rule provides for an appeal from the entry of a bench warrant. Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 792 P.2d 1133 (1990). Accordingly, on July 9, 2019, this court directed appellant's counsel to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. When appellant's counsel failed to respond, this court entered an order on August 27, 2019, again directing her to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

To date, appellant's counsel has not responded to the order to show cause. Nevertheless, having reviewed the documents filed with the notice of appeal, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider this appeal. Accordingly, this court

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
