Kurtze (Giovanni) Vs. State

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

GIOVANNI KOHLER KURTZE, No. 79601 Appellant, vs. 11; " THE STATE OF NEVADA,

Respondent. v 2RCAP.M.' CLER1$. KtEME COURT , BY DE.1-,i.r•;•1 CLERK ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court order "dismissing motion for the court to provide legal expenses." Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Michelle Leavitt, Judge.

Our review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. The right to appeal is statutory; where no statute or court rule provides for an appeal, no right to appeal exists. Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990). No statute or court rule provides for an appeal from an order dismissing a motion for the court to provide legal expenses.

Accordingly, we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
