JESSE ANDERSON, Appellant, v. MARC CHAMBERS, DPS OFFICER, Respondent.


ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from an order denying a petition to impanel a grand jury. First Judicial District Court, Carson City; James Todd Russell, Judge.

As no statute or court rule authorizes an appeal from an order denying a request to impanel a grand jury, the challenged order is not substantively appealable. See NRAP 3A(b) (listing orders and judgments from which an appeal may be taken); see also Taylor Constr. Co. v. Hilton Hotels, 100 Nev. 207, 209, 678 P.2d 1152, 1153 (1984) (holding that no appeal may be taken absent statute or court rule). Here, appellant's remedy is to file a petition pursuant to NRS 6.140; an appeal is not available. Accordingly, as we lack jurisdiction, we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
