Something is obviously wrong with the hub spacing on that side.
Look at another bike or 2 and see what I mean.
Is there a brand/model on the hub?
I can check when I get home. There actually is no nut. It uses a quick release system. Without pics it's tough. I don't know the names but I'll try to describe. It does it on both sides where it doesn't spin. The axle which has the hole for the quick release sits in the drop outs and is threaded on the outside. It's just sitting on the threads. And it doesn't pole outside the frame. It sits a couple mm inside the dropouts if anything. After 10 posts I can send pictures.
