IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

                ALDO MARONES, A/K/A ALDO                               No. 69557
                JOVANNY MORONES,
                                  Appellant,
                              vs.
                THE STATE OF NEVADA,
                                                                         FILED

                                                                           DEPUTY CLERK

                                     ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

                            This appeal was initiated by the filing of a pro se appeal.
                Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Michelle Leavitt, Judge.
                            Appellant filed his notice of appeal on December 21, 2015. In
                his notice of appeal, appellant stated that he was appealing the orders
                "denying his motion for appointment of counsel and request leave of the
                court to file a direct appeal and request for transcripts." Because no
                statute or court rule provides for an appeal from district court orders
                denying a motion for appointment of counsel and a motion for transcripts,
                we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal.   Castillo v. State, 106 Nev.
349, 352, 792 P.M 1133, 1135 (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 appellant appeals from the judgment of conviction, the
                notice of appeal was untimely filed. NRAP 4(b); NRS 34.675(1); NRAP
                26(a); NRAP 26(c). This court is unable to exercise discretionary
                extensions of time to file notices of appeal.   See NRAP 26(b)(1)(A) ("the
                court may not extend the time to file a notice of appeal except as provided
                in [NRAPj 4(c)"). An untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in

                 Accordingly, we
                             ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
