Devontay Eric WILLIAMS, Appellant, v. The STATE of Nevada, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from “the denial of parole board reinstate.” Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Jerome M. Polaha, Judge.
This court’s review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order denying parole or denying reinstatement of parole in a criminal matter. Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 792 P.2d 1133 (1990). To the extent that appellant’s appeal is in regard to the judgment of conviction entered on August 15, 2014, the notice of appeal was untimely filed. NRAP 4(b); Lozada v. State, 110 Nev. 349, 871 P.2d 944 (1994). Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
