MICHELLE YOUNG, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from a district court order denying a pretrial petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Douglas W. Herndon, Judge.
We previously entered an order directing appellant to show cause why this appeal should be not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Specifically, an order denying a pretrial petition for a writ of habeas corpus is not appealable. See Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990); Gary v. Sheriff, 96 Nev. 78, 605 P.2d 212 (1980). Having considered appellant's response, we conclude appellant fails to demonstrate that this court has jurisdiction, and we
To the extent appellant suggests that the notice of appeal should be treated as an original writ petition, we decline to do so.
We do not dismiss this appeal pursuant to appellant's notice of withdrawal of appeal, wherein appellant asserts that this appeal has been rendered moot by her subsequent entry of a plea to a lesser-included offense.
