IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

MICHAEL ANTHONY NELSON, No. 74232 Appellant, vs. THE STATE OF NEVADA, FILED Respondent. DEC 2 2 201? ELIZABETH A. BROWN CLERK Of SUPREME COU BY.. ORDER DISMISS/NC; APPEAL DEPUTY -am<

This is a pro se appeal "from the order of affirmance from the Supreme Court of Nevada, filed September 13, 201.7." Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jennifer P. Togliatti, Judge. Our review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order of affirmance. Castino u. State, 106 Nev. 349, 792 P.2d 1133 (1990) (right to appeal is statutory; where no statute or court rule provides for an appeal, no right to appeal exists). To the extent that the document can be construed as a petition for rehearing of this court's September 13, 2017, Order of Affirmance in Docket No. 71531., it was untimely filed. See NEAP 40(a)(.1). Accordingly, we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
