TIYON TONY FORD, Appellant, v. ROBERT LEGRAND, WARDEN, Respondent.


ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court order denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus that challenged the computation of time served.

On March 14, 2018, the district court filed a notice in this court certifying that, in light of the Nevada Supreme Court's recent decision in Williams v. State Department of Corrections, 133 Nev. ___, 402 P.3d 1260 (2017), it would reconsider appellant's petition for a writ of habeas corpus if appellant sought a remand to the district court. Subsequently, appellant filed a motion to remand this matter to the district court for reconsideration. On June 11, 2018, we granted appellant's motion and we remanded this appeal to the district court for the limited purpose of entry of an order granting reconsideration of appellant's petition for a writ of habeas corpus. See e.g., Foster v. Dingwall, 126 Nev. 49, 52-53, 228 P.3d 453, 454-56 (2010).

On June 21, 2018, the district court filed in this court a copy of an order granting appellant's petition for reconsideration that was entered on June 19, 2018. In light of the district court's order granting reconsideration, we conclude this appeal has been rendered moot, and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
