Opinion

No. 79506

09-27-2019

COURTNEY MOTLEY, Appellant, v. NDOC; AND JAMES DZURENDA, DIRECTOR Respondents.


ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a purported district court order denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Tierra Danielle Jones, Judge.

This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no decision had been made on the petition when appellant filed the appeal on August 26, 2019. Thus, the notice of appeal is premature. See NRS 177.015(3). Accordingly, this court

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
