ORDER ADMINISTRATIVELY CLOSING APPEAL IN DOCKET NO. 59605

These are proper person appeals from orders denying a “motion for ineffective assistance of counsel.” Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Michael Villani, Judge.

The district court treated the July 26, 2011 motion for ineffective assistance of counsel as a post-conviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus.

Appellant's appeal from the district court's decision to deny his motion was previously docketed in this court in Docket No. 59028. The clerk of this court inadvertently docketed the appeal in Docket No. 59605 as a separate matter when appellant filed a second notice of appeal. Accordingly, we direct the clerk of this court to administratively close the appeal in Docket No. 59605 and transfer to Docket No. 59028 all documents filed or received in this matter.

The district court entered the first written order denying the motion on September 8, 2011. The district court entered a second order, containing specific findings of fact and conclusions of law on October 6, 2011.

It is so ORDERED.
