JON PAUL MCINNES v. THE STATE OF NEVADA (2023)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se notice of appeal from a district court order holding defendant's submitted motions in abeyance and directing status update from attorney Thomas Qualls. Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Barry L. Breslow, Judge.

This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no statute or court rule provides for an appeal from a district court order holding defendant's submitted motions in abeyance and directing status update from attorney Thomas Qualls. See Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990) (explaining that court has jurisdiction only when statute or court rule provides for appeal). To the extent that appellant's appeal is in regard to the judgment of conviction entered on December 5, 2019, the notice of appeal was untimely filed. See Lozada v. State, 110 Nev. 349, 352, 871 P.2d 944, 946 (1994) (explaining that an untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court). Accordingly, this court

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
