CYNTHIA CHALKER, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a proper person appeal from a purported order denying a post-conviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Carolyn Ellsworth, Judge.
Appellant filed her notice of appeal on November 8, 2013, designating an order denying a post-conviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. However, the documents before this court indicate that no such petition has been filed in the district court, and consequently, no decision, oral or written, has been made. Because appellant failed to designate an appealable order, we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, and we
A post-conviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus must be filed in the district court in the first instance in compliance with the procedural requirements set forth in NRS chapter 34.
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
