Kenneth PATTON, Appellant, v. The NEVADA BOARD OF PAROLE COMMISSIONERS; Christopher Dericco, Com.; Susan Jackson, Com.; and Adam Endel, Com., Respondents.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Appellant challenges an order denying his motion for appointment of counsel, denying his motion for transport or alternative appearance, and denying his motion to extend his prison copy work limit. This court has jurisdiction to consider an appeal only when the appeal is authorized by statute or court rule. Taylor Constr. Co. v. Hilton Hotels, 100 Nev. 207, 678 P.2d 1152 (1984); Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990) (holding the appellate court lacks jurisdiction where no statute or court rule authorizes the appeal). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from the order challenged by appellant. See NRAP 3A(b). Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
